JetBlue estimates total Other Income (Expense) to be between ($40) and ($45) million in the third
quarter and between ($160) and ($170) million for the full year.
JetBlue expects an annual effective tax rate of approximately 42%. However, the actual tax rate in
both third quarter and full year 2011 could differ due to the non-deductibility of certain items
for tax purposes.
