New York, NY (January 21, 2004) - JetBlue Airways (Nasdaq: JBLU) has
filed an application with the U.S. Department of Transportation
requesting ten slot exemptions to commence service from New York's
LaGuardia Airport in Spring 2004.

Just four years old, the low-fare carrier is already the largest
airline, in terms of passengers carried, at New York's John F. Kennedy
International Airport, currently operating 83 daily departures to 19
cities. Cities and schedules served from LaGuardia will be announced
later this winter.

"As New York's hometown airline, JetBlue's planned LaGuardia service
will allow us to introduce our brand of service to new customers who
prefer to fly from LaGuardia," said David Neeleman, JetBlue's Chairman
and CEO. "It doesn't change our growth plans for JFK where we will
continue to add more flights to more cities and are working towards
construction of a new terminal and a new hangar. But it does give our
customers another option when they choose to fly JetBlue."

JetBlue is a low-fare, low-cost passenger airline, which provides
high-quality customer service. JetBlue operates a fleet of 55 new
Airbus A320 aircraft and plans to add another 14 A320s to its fleet in
2004. The airline has on order 100 EMBRAER 190 aircraft with options
for an additional 100 with deliveries scheduled to begin in mid 2005.
All JetBlue aircraft feature roomy all-leather seats each equipped with
free live satellite television, offering up to 24 channels of DIRECTV?
Programming at every seat.* JetBlue has been named "Best Domestic
Airline" for the last two years by the readers of Conde Nast Traveler
magazine.

Based out of New York City's John F. Kennedy International Airport,
JetBlue currently operates 220 flights a day and serves 22 destinations
in 11 states and Puerto Rico with plans to commence daily nonstop
service on March 3 between New York's JFK and Sacramento, CA. With
JetBlue, all seats are assigned, all travel is ticketless, all fares
are one-way, and a Saturday night stay is never required. For more
information, schedules and fares, please visit www.jetblue.com or call
JetBlue reservations at 1-800-JETBLUE (538-2583). This press release,
as well as past press releases, can be found on www.jetblue.com.

and San Juan, Puerto Rico.
