Usage notes

ICAO code JBU; callsign "JetBlue." Founded by David Neeleman, JetBlue began flying in February 2000. Its code mixes a letter and a digit because IATA ran short of two-letter combinations. A planned merger with Spirit Airlines was blocked by a federal judge on antitrust grounds in 2024.
