JetBlue Airways Takes Its NY Jets Partnership to New Heights

JetBlue Airways recently celebrated its partnership with the New York Jets by unveiling an Airbus A320 aircraft with a special Jets-themed paint scheme at John F. Kennedy Airport. The unique aircraft features a green belly, green wing tips, a green tail, and JETS lettering across the body of the plane. Under the cockpit of the aircraft, the plane features the tagline "I LOVE NEW YORK" in place of a characteristic 'blue' name.

The Jets aircraft signifies JetBlue's commitment to the Jets organization as the two parties look for new ways to take their partnership to new heights. JetBlue invited several key stakeholders to celebrate the unveiling of the aircraft, including CEO Dave Barger, NY Jets Chairman and CEO Woody Johnson, Curtis Martin and other Jets alumni, the Jets Flight Crew, and hundreds of crewmembers. The Jets featured a number of vehicles and props on-site and all guests were treated to a first-class experience.

JetBlue also announced that if the Jets win Super Bowl XLV in Dallas, they will refund select one-way and roundtrip flight purchases as part of a pledge in partnership with Mastercard.
