JetBlue, a popular airline based in New York City, has recently unveiled a new special livery on one of its aircraft in partnership with the New York Jets, a professional football team based in the city. The unique green paint job is inspired by the team’s uniforms and is the third of its kind for this particular aircraft.

The Airbus A320-200 with the registration N746JB received its new livery at the Middle Georgia Regional Airport on September 13, and was spotted leaving the facility on the same day according to Flightradar24. The design features the classic green and white colors of the New York Jets and the aircraft has also been renamed as ‘J! E! T! B! L! U! E! ‘ to further showcase the partnership.

The new livery was officially revealed at a special event held at John F Kennedy International Airport, where JetBlue is based. Current and former players from the New York Jets were in attendance, and passengers on the special flight were treated to themed goodie bags. Stephanie Evans Greene, the SVP of Marketing & Brand at JetBlue, expressed her excitement for the new livery, stating that it symbolizes the airline’s pride for its hometown and the shared roots with the New York Jets.

JetBlue has been the official airline partner of the New York Jets since 2009, and the partnership has grown to include joint marketing, in-stadium activations, and exclusive promotions. Since its unveiling, the aircraft with the new livery has flown to various destinations, including Buffalo, Santo Domingo, and Kingston, showing its support for the team both domestically and internationally.

The New York Jets have also welcomed the new livery, with Jeff Fernandez, the team’s SVP of Business Development & Ventures, stating that flying on the aircraft is a chance to feel the energy, pride, and passion of the team. This is the third NFL-themed livery for the Airbus A320-200, with all three designs being tied to JetBlue’s partnership with the New York Jets. The aircraft, which is 17 years old, first flew in September 2008 and has undergone two previous NFL-inspired liveries before the latest one.

Overall, the new livery showcases the strong partnership between JetBlue and the New York Jets, and serves as a symbol of hometown pride for both the airline and the team. With its eye-catching design, the aircraft is sure to turn heads wherever it flies, representing the passion and spirit of New York City.
