JetBlue Airways indicated Tuesday that it might pursue additional secured debt financing if fuel prices continue to be high. The airline's net loss widened to $247 million in the second quarter, compared to a loss of $74 million in the same period of 2025.

Executives stated during a quarterly earnings call that the company has the capacity to raise more capital against its $500 million aircraft-backed loan acquired in April. The governing credit agreement for this loan permits up to $250 million in additional financing, according to company officials. This potential move comes as the airline grapples with persistent elevated fuel costs, which have impacted its financial performance.
