Vision, Mission, Competition
The new mission statement for JetBlue is "To become a top 4 airline in the United States, differentiated by exceptional customer service."
The new vision statement will be "JetBlue will lead the renaissance in American air travel, restoring the industry to the days when people looked forward to flying."
The mission statement is specific with respect to market share, and geographic scope, and it also provides a pathway for how JetBlue hopes to get there. Service is one area where an airline can be truly differentiated, and while JetBlue is also a low cost airline, it knows that delivering great customer service improves brand loyalty, and often does not cost that much extra.
The vision statement is bold -- and visionary -- and can be inspirational in nature. By tapping into the forgotten romance of air travel, both customers and employees can be inspired by this vision. The vision also ties into the mission statement quite well, because service really defined that era.
