Oh my...how will JetBlue ever survive after this???
I swear dude, you manage to pull the most pathetically pessimistic conclusions from every single piece of information you come across. You’d made a great tabloid author.

It’s a replacement for their 757-200’s no? I don’t think it’s much growth or any at all, maybe someone has those numbers. Not a good day for Boeing.

We have the most dysfunctional union that could possibly exist. The chances of breaking out the 321 into the upper pay tier are pretty much zero. History has shown that the APA will trade something good for something worse.
The XLR will be a really good jet for your operation. You guys have shown you can compete in the markets with the bigger carriers. There is always room for a niche product. The biggest issue with international is not just the Deltas and Uniteds and Americans in the market, it’s all the foreign carriers that you are competing with going into their home markets. There is a lot of competition out of JFK. But since south Florida is a big destination for Europeans I could see JetBlue doing something from FLL or MCO.

Frontier is the first US Carrier to order the A321XLR.
The airframes will go to Frontier, Whizz and Jet Smart.
Frankes just connecting the dots of his global ULCC.
