Since you’re selling the JBLU shares for a gain, there’s no wash sale issue here anyway, because the wash sale rule only kicks in when you realize a loss that gets replaced by a substantially identical position inside the 30‑day window. For future reference, the classic problem would be the reverse of what you did: sell JBLU at a loss and then buy a call or more shares within 30 days, which can trigger wash sale treatment.
I’ve been bag holding JBLU for sooo long, almost back to green. 3,500 heavy shares.
Profit/ chickened out. I picked 2 weaker airlines to trade against the oil price swings. JBLU and AAL seem to move quite a bit in either direction depending on what oil is doing. Building my confidence is going to be a big part I realized.
Got a few JBLU Apr 10 $5 calls on the cheap looking good 🤞
To all you regards that pumped up JBLU while I shorted, thank you for my vacation money. Too easy
My JBLU bags just got so much lighter
Didn't JBLU try to merge with Spirit and got cockblocked? What makes this time any different? Lol
JBLU takes off didnt even notice. Missed out haha
Very few airlines are hedged anymore but they are offsetting this by charging increase ticket prices. I don’t know how well this is going to pay off long term. My guess is that you are short either JBLU or AAL. You got to realize that LUV,DAL,UAL cant fall that much further because that’s covid level territory
Give me one good reason I don’t load JBLU puts at open
Rising fuel costs is definitely not a good situation for JBLU or any other airline, but doesn't this keep revenue per mile constant with their old projections? Every airline will raise fares in response, so revenue per seat mile will increase. There'll surely be a hit to load factors due to the price rise, so it's still not a good situation, but fares aren't going to stay where they were projected to be before the fuel spike.
The fuel price spike is massive, but you are telling me that JBLU has 0 hedge against that, no long term contracts to buy below spot price? That would be the most surprising thing to me and I did not see that directly addressed.
#TLDR --- Ticker: JBLU Direction: Down Prognosis: Buy Puts / Short into the ground Destination: Chapter 11 Fuel Status: Unhedged and Expensive
#TLDR --- Ticker: JBLU Direction: Down Catalyst: Skyrocketing Jet Fuel Prices & Credit Card Holdbacks Current Status: Running on fumes (and debt) Prognosis: Buy Puts (Chapter 11 likely imminent)
Airlines are fukt. AAL, JBLU, UAL
It’s not tourism or cancelled flights, it’s the coming spike in jet fuel prices. If the Red Sea shipping lanes and the Strait of Hormuz become uninsurable you will likely see JBLU come close to insolvent and FCF for the other airlines go to almost 0. Time will tell but I don’t think airlines are investable rn.
JBLU had a rough day but I think its going to get absorbed by United this year. UA said no last year- but they have started working in getting JBLU customer used to using their platform. Also orange removing anti trust peeps. JBLU C5 2027. JBLU shares.
Anyone hearing merger $JBLU?
Dems poised to torpedo CR. With no end in sight, busiest travel season fast approaching, and FAA reductions increasing 6%, 8%, 10% through Nov. 14, bearish on airlines: AAL, DAL, UAL, LUV, ALK, JBLU. ATM puts Jan. 16 anyone?
$26k in puts on AAL, ALK, JBLU, LUV and UAL. Not even Sully can stop the airline nosedive ... https://preview.redd.it/yk8gpl1ajozf1.png?width=2712&format=png&auto=webp&s=5a520c1a7b69a0b1f853a39fe896bbc1f9be9dfe
Puts on AAL, DAL, UAL, ALK, LUV, JBLU. 1,800 flight cancellations a day. The next two weeks are going to be spicy ... [https://www.wsj.com/us-news/faa-flight-cancellations-delays-government-shutdown-54ab5be3?mod=hp\_lead\_pos7](https://www.wsj.com/us-news/faa-flight-cancellations-delays-government-shutdown-54ab5be3?mod=hp_lead_pos7)
Thoughts on airline puts with 10% flow reductions (AAL. DAL. UAL. LUV. JBLU) dated Nov. 28/Jan. 16? Polymarket & r/ATC polls have odds of govt reopening week of Thanksgiving (24th) with Thanksgiving Day as hard stop.
I feel you, I like ALK more than JBLU. I just like swing trading it. Airlines will bounce back up when things calm down and the pendulum swings the other way. If JBLU gets bought, that’s great. If they turn it around, even better. I’m just saying, if it’s going to be at these levels, I’m buying it at like $3.50 and selling it at like $5.50-6.50 when it bounces back up.
Have you done any sort of look into JBLU’s financial reports? They have been losing money on a pretty consistent basis ever since COVID and still aren’t profitable. They lost money in Q2 (peak summer travel season) and oil prices are below average historically. If they can’t make money now, how are they going to survive a downturn in consumer spending? Unless you’re holding out hope for them to merge with another airline, JBLU is not a good investment.
Noticed restaurants, gambling, and airlines are all taking big hits right now. Still averaging into Comcast, UPS, and AVPT. Interested in PLAY, JBLU, ALK. Looking at JBLU in particular. I would love grabbing JBLU at $3.50 and waiting for it to ride back up to $5-6.
Long jet blue thread deleted as spam/low effort as most of my posts have been. Not sure whose coffee I pissed in but clearly they're not quite impartial - the thread was engaged and the post was expanding with DD. Done posting here I'll go back to lurking and scraping for momentum plays. For those who were following the thread. I can't share the link to another post and thread that convinced me to stay away from JBLU for the moment because the auto is considers it promotion of another sub... the moderation here is annoying. It's a wall streets bets post in which a number of people with industry experience talk about their concerns with airline stocks in general and their experience waiting for mergers/ how partnerships work in the aieline business and why a merger or acquisition is unlikely. If you really want to see the post feel free to reach out and I'll share the post with you (so long as it's not a ton of people).

f u JBLU, i need more volatility i dont care that you saved $281 Million on fuel this year
JBLU earnings tomorrow. 5$ calls 10/31 expiration at market open... short hold and sell about 2 PM. Longer $5 Leaps Jan 2027 expiration for longer hold. Low fuel prices. Partnership with United Airlines. Spirit airlines bankruptcy increasing market share. First profitable quarter last quarter. Stock popped after earnings.
We holding JBLU through tomorrow or na?
Yes, I have two strong ones that both expire this week 10/31: JBLU $5C 10/31 - trading around $.10 cents RDDT $210C 10/31 - trading around $21.50 Both will blow out earnings.
lol JBLU shorts getting smoked today
Put Volume Total **1,688** Call Volume Total **3,921 on JBLU expiring on 10/31**
I think JBLU calls might be the surprise of the week!
This next week is gonna be a wild ride. Im holding JBLU calls and im scared.
#TLDR --- Ticker: JBLU Direction: Up Prognosis: Buying shares and long-dated calls for the 2026-27 turnaround. Destination: The Moon 🚀✈️
AI model gives JBLU a 73% prob of beat consensus; beaten 5/last 6 quarters. Stock down 41% YTD so expectations are gutter-like. Potential setup for a surprise pop.
The JetBlue / AA partnership ended in 2023. In fact it ended with AA suing JBLU. Am I missing something or did you hit your head OP?
JBLU will jump on earnings
JBLU mooning in the heat of a trade war
It would be cool if JBLU could pull their heads out of their asses
I've been swing trading JBLU for a few years. Now I just wheel and chill.
Anyone else remember when Judge Young blocked the Spirit JBLU merger saying “this is for the fans of spirit airlines”
My current technical plays: NIO 9/19 $5C, RIVN shares, JBLU 9/19 $5C (might be a little early/waiting for confirmation), and I hate to say it, but it looks like bulls took control of DJT today. Confirmation needed.
KSS gained \~9.8% on Monday, \~6% UP Tuesday, \~9.5% Today, Wednesday But KSS is and was missing Yahoo's Gainer list [https://finance.yahoo.com/markets/stocks/gainers/?start=0&count=100](https://finance.yahoo.com/markets/stocks/gainers/?start=0&count=100) same with JBLU, UP by \~20+% this week and its to missing, Its also missing other tickers and on its shorted list Ticker PLCE which was \~50% earlier, even now 45+% shorted NOTE: YAHOO finan, 90% owned by Apollo i.e. Leon BIack, Epstien list guy related company. I doubt that short list, I don't trust them. They might have interests in this or some really bad team which put these list out or both. Much better list [https://www.marketwatch.com/tools/screener/short-interest](https://www.marketwatch.com/tools/screener/short-interest)
My JBLU and LUMN positions are hard carrying today lol
WENDYS FIG JBLU and BLSH Drops the 13th supposed to do same thing as fig! GET IN AND MAKE SOME MONEYS BOYS
Jetblue delayed my flight four hours, moved it back up to being on-time, delayed it by an hour and a half, and then delayed it by another hour. Puts on $JBLU
Approval of the shared booking and frequent flyer points between JBLU and UAL is a big lift for JBLU.
Big green vol on JBLU today. Nice to see the love.
Lil JBLU is rippin higher on Q2 earnings report.
JBLU had way better Q2 numbers than folks had projected and improving outlook too.
Guys I just dumped my entire IRA into JBLU calls, am I cooked?
My little pal JBLU is rippin' today.
You should add JBLU - JetBlue, Cheap Options - Carl Icahn has a position and it's shorted 17% Earnings come out next week and Airlines have been doing well. It's also been upgraded recently to $8, Currently $4.44. Godspeed
Has anyone here actually been on a JBLU plane in the last 5 years? I can’t remember the last time I’ve even seen one lol.
Airlines stocks are primed for take off into Q2 earnings. Debt buy downs, decreasing oil prices, and expected beat in earnings. Watch $AAL $JBLU Placed a $5 Call on $JBLU 8/15 x 1000
Fly JBLU !!! Fly like the wind!
Wow! JBLU is rippin' into the close. People are still flying after all!
Is anyone eyeing JBLU? Am I dumb?
Nice to see lil JBLU reject $4.30 and head back up today.
I'm thinking, if DAL can give such a big upside surprise, JBLU is going to look even better with the frequent fliers. Flying the new A320s that JBLU has been buying is an unbelievable budget-luxury feel. Liking what I'm seeing witht he airlines today ... particularly new pals UAL and JBLU.
JBLU is making one hellofa big green candle today.
What's that called when a bunch of people sold a stock short and then have to buy it back really fast because there is a shock of good news? Check out the move in JBLU today after Delta earnings! JBLU !!!
Wow wow wow -- JBLU !!!
Check out jump in airlines after DAL beat! Bought some JBLU yesterday for upside surprise.
What the hell, I'm buying more JBLU here at the appealing price of 4.20
Let's talk about what you all hate the most: $JBLU So Spirit complained about the potential United Airlines-JetBlue deal. In my opinion, that was a total cuck move.
I still think JBLU and other airlines are poised for a snap back. JBLU is one of those 1/5 tangible book value, high beta, small float, 20% short interest gems that is gonna fly higher in these conditions.
Based on swing trading this stock for the past two years, JBLU is one of those 1/5 tangible book value, high beta, small float, 20% short interest gems that is gonna fly higher in these conditions.
I tell ya kids, JBLU is one of those 1/5 tangible book value, high beta, small float, 20% short interest gems that is gonna fly higher in these conditions.
JBLU is heading back to $5+ with 6% moves for the past two days ... and still climbing.
$JBLU is still a shit airline
Airlines making bounce on reality that people are still flying ... a lot. Sweet little JBLU up 6% in the past two days and still climbing. Love that JBLU beta!
You might want to take a little peek-a-loo at the move JBLU is making today.
I often wonder, late at night , when my mind drifts to fanciful whimsy, what might happen to JBLU if it were to receive the meme-style attentions which might take advantage of the 1.9 beta and a whopping 20% short interest. How might the JBLU share valuation leap up to hurdle the weak resistance of nay-sayers and negative nabobs? In truth, the possibilities for little JBLU are myriad and bright, what with the fresh leadership in the C-suite, and the renewed focus upon route profitability and passenger delight.
JBLU is such a sweet little stock on these slightly negative low vol days.
Nice to see JBLU beginning the push back up on these low vol days.
I do it based on the collateral I use. So for JBLU for instance, if I sell a $5 put, I want to get at least 0.05 per share in premium since that’s 1% of the $5 strike. Multiply it all by 100 and that $5 premium for $500 I use as collateral. Then I get as many contracts as I want to risk. If I’m assigned and selling calls the other way, I use the cost of the shares as my collateral, not the current value. So if I bought 100 at $5, i want to make sure I get at least $5 total from the contract again. Ideally I sell the call for a 5.50 strike so I make profit on the underlying but it depends on what the existing price is. In the case the last couple weeks where this happened but the stock dropped further due to the conflict in the Middle East, I’m fine with just breaking even on the shares as long as I’m pulling in the profit. As for how much I want to risk on each, that’s just a tolerance thing based on what’s going on over the weekend into Monday morning. But ultimately if I can get 1% of my total portfolio value in premiums alone through various contracts, that’s my goal. Anything extra is a bonus.
Well if you want gray hair early in life buy airlines. I’m not saying you can’t make money but so many things affect them..tech outages , weather, oil prices etc. That said I just bought JBLU as a trade at 4.10. Short term trade
So .. JBLU has \~20% short interest. What happens when JBLU makes more wins like BlueSky with UAL? The new JBLU CEO is cutting, tightening, re-directing to get back to profits with a leaner team. What do shorts do when that strategy seems to be starting to succeed?
The 20% short interest in JBLU makes these strong up days particularly interesting...
JBLU leading airlines up.
Nice bounce for JBLU today.
JBLU has been locked in at 4.20 for the past two days. More flights to Jamaica?
Lately it’s been a lot of JBLU, AAL, WBD, and ACHR. But I’ve thrown in CCL, NCLH, PFE and a handful of others in the past. It’s a bit of a rotation, I’ll do these few for a while and then the other group will get me a bit more premium so I’ll swap them out. I don’t pay attention to the Greeks as I don’t buy the contracts back. I just let them play out however they do. If anything, I’ll occasionally throw in a buy of a further put and create a credit spread to hedge it if there’s particularly bad news that’s going to tank the stock but that’s only happened a handful of times and were ultimately not necessary.
Amazing JBLU has gone down less than UAL and DAL today. Makes me slightly uncomfortable in the loin cloth.
