IBA Insight aircraft-valuation data platform used by JetBlue treasury

JetBlue Airways · IBA Group

JetBlue's treasury and corporate finance team uses IBA Insight, an aircraft-valuation and fleet-data platform from the UK firm IBA. In a testimonial on IBA's airline page, a JetBlue Manager for Treasury and Corporate Finance says the airline has relied on IBA Insight "for three years" for fleet valuations, and that it supports fleet strategy and financing decisions.

IBA's page was last modified on 16 June 2026, so the three-year period cannot be dated precisely. The testimonial describes a data and valuation service, and IBA does not describe a prediction or learning function in it. Contract terms and the start date of JetBlue's use had not been published as of 16 October 2026.
