Well, I wasn't talking about them, but JetBlue is a great partner for us.
We love their focus on customers.
Really, it's more cultural than anything.
It's the reason we wanted to partner with JetBlue, because we both believe in doing the right thing for customers, that the industry is not a commodity.
And the partnership is great so far.
If there are opportunities to expand in the future, we'd certainly look at that.
JetBlue is trying to turn the corner.
Much of the industry's
had challenges, but they have the right strategy, the right vision, and we have a lot of hope for them in the future, and we appreciate the partnership with them.

I think that's indicative of an underlying economy that has more underlying strength, I think, than most appreciate.
We saw that all through last year, see it continuing into this year.
And people getting back to travel, I'm sure that applies in other industries as well.
We're not sure if it'll last for the whole year.
I think our base case probably is that it will.
We haven't built that into our guidance.
We've been more conservative in our guidance.
