Overview
- JetBlue operated a commemorative final Embraer E190 revenue flight from New York JFK to Boston, retracing the aircraft’s inaugural route.
- Chief Operating Officer Warren Christie, who flew JetBlue’s first E190 service in 2005, captained the farewell flight.
- The airline now flies only Airbus A220 and A320 family aircraft after phasing out a fleet that once exceeded 60 E190s.
- JetBlue’s A220s seat 140 and offer improved fuel efficiency, range suitable for transcontinental routes, larger overhead bins, bigger windows, in-seat power, and free Wi‑Fi.
- Public reporting on A220 totals differs, with one account citing 52 deliveries and 48 on order, and another noting 52 in the fleet with 100 on order.
