JetBlue names Sean Menke to board as director Ben Baldanza resigns

Neutral Impact 2 of 5 leadership Written later

JetBlue appointed Sean Menke, former executive chair of Sabre Corp., to its board of directors effective September 12, 2024, and also disclosed that director B. Ben Baldanza resigned from the board, effective the same date. The filing reports no financial results or guidance, so the changes affect board composition rather than the company's reported performance.

Key points

  • Sean Menke was appointed to the board on September 12, 2024, as an independent director and will serve on the Audit and Safety committees.
  • Menke was executive chair of Sabre Corp. from early 2022 until April 2024 and was Sabre's CEO until April 2023.
  • B. Ben Baldanza resigned from the board, effective September 12, 2024, for personal reasons, after serving as a director since 2018.
  • After the change, JetBlue's board has 13 members, 12 of whom are independent.

Written later: this filing was briefed after the fact, when past filings were added to the site, so the brief may be read with hindsight; the filing itself is the record of what was known on September 16, 2024.
