JetBlue Airways is implementing broad cost-cutting measures, including cutting flights, pausing upgrades to aircraft, and reducing internal spending, as it struggles to regain profitability.

JetBlue plans to reduce its capacity and cut unprofitable routes as the travel industry grapples with a slowdown in demand fueled by economic concerns. Why it matters: JetBlue has already been struggling to regain its footing after its plan to merge with Spirit Airlines was blocked by a federal judge in 2024.

JetBlue Airways Corp. plans to hasten cost cuts by eliminating some flights, ending service to a number of cities and restructuring its leadership ranks.
