    JetBlue Loves New York!

    The decision is in. The New York Times reported today that JetBlue is staying in New York! They will move their HQ to a Citigroup Building in Queens Plaza.

    Looks like it really had NY and Orlando guessing down to the wire.

    Good news that they are staying in NY. The move to a new building vs their own stand alone building itself is proabably going to be a decent cost savings for them. Its nice to hear some bright news in this economy.

    Great to hear that they will be staying in NY but a little disappointed that they will no longer be referred to as "Forest Hills based JetBlue".

    Any idea if they will be in the main Citi building or one of the smaller ones next to it?

    New details here...

    NYCAviation:
    JetBlue to Remain New York’s Hometown Airline
    JetBlue Airways announced today that it is keeping its headquarters in New York City, following a year of speculation that the company might move out of the area to reduce costs.
    * City will invest $3 million in Terminal 5.
    * State will allow JetBlue to use “I ? NY” logo and branding in its marketing materials.
    * New HQ building was built in 1910 as a car factory, renovated in the past several years and most recently occupied by MetLife.
