"JetBlue CEO Robin Hayes to Step Down, COO Joanna Geraghty to Take Helm"

JetBlue CEO Robin Hayes will step down in February, with COO Joanna Geraghty set to take over. The departure comes as JetBlue aims to acquire Spirit Airlines, a move currently being challenged by the U.S. Department of Justice. Hayes cited the high-pressure nature of the job as a reason for his resignation, and will remain on the board of directors until he leaves his post. Geraghty, who has been with JetBlue for about two decades, will be tasked with addressing the airline's recent struggles and potentially overseeing the merger with Spirit Airlines.
