The New York-based carrier will have an operating loss of 2 to 4 percent of revenue in the quarter. It had forecast a profit of 2 to 4 percent of revenue, JetBlue spokesman Bryan Baldwin said in an interview. The company declined to say what the loss would be in dollars.

The changes amount to a loss of about 14 cents a share for the first quarter, and a full-year profit of about 44 cents.
