Are you prepared for a change in the green?

Airbus A320

JetBlue has decided to decrease the amount of its aircraft deliveries.

Embraer 190s

For the Airbus A320s, the deliveries have been decreased by half, from eight to four air crafts. Alternatively in the case of the Embraer 190s, the decrease in deliveries is significantly smaller, from five to four air crafts.

These delivery cut backs are only for the year 2010. In the year 2012, JetBlue plans to further decrease their deliveries to only two Airbus A320 deliveries and seven Embraer 190s. In contrast, as recently as 2006, Jet Blue was accepting the deliveries of a new plane every 10 days.

The change in JetBlue’s air craft deliveries comes from the fact that by controlling the airline’s growth, they will also be steadying the airline’s cost.

This information was released on Tuesday afternoon by JetBlue’s CEO, Dave Barger, at a investor conference.
