Strategy

Our goal is to establish jetBlue as a leading low-

fare, low-cost passenger airline by offering
customers high-quality customer service and a
differentiated product. We strive to offer low fares
that stimulate market demand while maintaining a
continuous focus on cost-containment and operating
efficiencies. We intend to follow a controlled growth
plan designed to take advantage of our competitive
strengths. Our growth has occurred, and we believe
it will continue to occur, by adding additional
frequencies on existing routes, connecting new city
pairs among the destinations we already serve and
entering new markets often served by higher-cost,
higher-fare airlines.

Amy Curtis-McIntyre, VP of Marketing

Advertising is the last thing you bring to the mix. You start by
getting the product right, getting your attitude right, getting
everyone internally understanding the mission. Then you move
to telling the story through PR. You build the advertising last,
and that way you can live on realistic budgets
