Item 5.02.      Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Principal Officers.

(d) On May 9, 2006, JetBlue Airways Corporation issued a press release announcing the election by its Board of Directors of Ms. Virginia Gambale as a director, effective May 5, 2006, for a term expiring in 2007. The Board of Directors also appointed Ms. Gambale as a member of the Audit Committee of the Board. The full text of our press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this report and is incorporated herein by reference.

Prior to her election to our Board, Ms. Gambale was not affiliated with JetBlue in any capacity. There are no arrangements or understandings between Ms. Gambale and any other person pursuant to which she was selected as a director nor are there any transactions in which Ms. Gambale has an interest requiring disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

Item 8.01.    Other Events.

With the appointment of Virginia Gambale to the Audit Committee of JetBlue’s Board of Directors, as disclosed in Item 5.02 above, the size of our Audit Committee has been increased from three to four members, each of whom is an independent director within the meaning of applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Nasdaq Stock Market, effective May 5, 2006. Also effective on this date, Neal Moszkowski, who is currently a member of the Audit Committee and previously served as its Chairman, has resumed that role replacing Joy Covey, who has stepped down from the committee. As previously reported, Ms. Covey has notified us that she is not standing for re-election to the Board at JetBlue’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held on May 18, 2006. In addition, Kim Clark, who previously served as a member of the Audit Committee, has rejoined the Audit Committee as its fourth member on an interim basis until such time as a new independent director has been duly elected and appointed to the committee.
