Not sure how you came to this conclusion. JetBlue has aircraft on order, and I see no reason why they wouldn't take our current orders and add to the stack. They won't be buying us to stay locked in the north east. They are buying us to become a better version of Southwest.

At this pace it’ll take until 2030 to get all 100 orders. Still stuck on 10 airframes and it’s been over a year since the A220 started flying at JetBlue. Supply chain and quality control issues.
To answer your question it’s like 18 planes next year, 22 the following. Believe it when I see it.

Some of these threads are tough reads.
The original “B6 wants us too” thread is locked, but that’s a wild one to look back on as well.
