JetBlue is actively engaging in discussions with several airlines in the United States to explore potential partnerships following the termination of its Northeast Alliance (NEA) with American Airlines. This alliance, a codeshare agreement, primarily concentrated on flights within Boston and New York.
During JetBlue's Q4 2024 earnings call on January 28, CEO Joanna Geraghty stated that the airline is currently in talks "with a number of carriers right now." Although no formal announcements have been made regarding these discussions, Geraghty mentioned that Leo Sorokin, District Judge of the US District Court for the District of Massachusetts, provided an acceptable framework "under at least the prior administration" when ruling against the NEA in May 2023.
Geraghty highlighted opportunities to improve the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and address air traffic control issues under the new administration in Washington, DC. "We look forward to partnering with the new leaders at the DOT and FAA to make this happen," she said.
