JetBlue Airways is accelerating cost-cutting measures in response to weaker-than-expected travel demand, which has made achieving break-even operating margins in 2025 unlikely. The company plans to reduce the number of flights, pause aircraft retrofits, park some jets, and cut internal spending. These actions include pulling back on routes to several U.S. states and major metropolitan areas. JetBlue CEO Joanna Geraghty communicated these changes to staff amid a challenging economic environment that has softened travel demand. As a result, JetBlue's stock has declined, reflecting concerns over the carrier's profitability and outlook.
