As we go into 2026, we're optimistic that the consumer is healthy and that we're going to start really ramping up the initiatives that we have been working really hard for the last year to execute to and seeing the benefit as we move through 2026.
You know, our goal next year is to break even from an operating margin perspective, and that's the first step back to profitability.
We have a great team here.
Everybody's pulling for us.
We're doing all the right things, whether it's our focus on operational reliability, net promoter score, all the premium products that we're launching, our laser focus on costs, and really trying to make sure that we're delivering a great product offering for customers, because JetBlue has this wonderful brand and this sense of

I mean, think about all the people who are traveling for weddings and funerals or doctor's appointments that were displaced because we couldn't get on the same page in Washington, D.C.
So we're really hopeful that we've turned a page there and that we can move forward.
Looking at that end of January date,
With, you know, a little bit of nervousness, but I'm confident that D.C.
will pull it together and get us in the back end of that.
