JetBlue Airways and the Florida Panthers today unveiled a new special-edition aircraft livery celebrating their expanded partnership and shared South Florida roots. Named “Go Cats Go,” the Airbus A320 (N784JB) brings Panthers colors, logos and team history to the skies while broadly displaying JetBlue’s commitment to Florida.
The aircraft was revealed on November 5, 2026 at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL), where JetBlue was joined by Florida Panthers President of Hockey Operations and General Manager Bill Zito, Captain Aleksander Barkov and Forward Brad Marchand as well as local officials and community partners to celebrate the newest expression of the airline’s partnership with the Panthers.
Following the unveiling, the celebration continued inside the terminal as Stanley C. Panther and Viktor E. Ratt, the team’s mascots, greeted customers traveling on “Go Cats Go’s” first flight out of Florida. Customers onboard also received special giveaways to celebrate the aircraft’s debut.
A Panthers Design from Nose to Tail
“Go Cats Go” trades JetBlue’s signature blue for a look inspired by the Panthers jersey. The iconic Panthers red covers the aircraft body while the state animal and team namesake stands beside JetBlue’s logo, proudly representing the partnership. On the aircraft’s tail, the Panthers shield logo stands out in navy and gold.
The jersey inspiration continues underneath the aircraft. Bold red letters spell out “FLORIDA” against a white belly, which echoes the white stripe across the Panthers’ uniform and makes it easy to spot JetBlue’s commitment to the Sunshine State from the ground. The team’s leaping cat logo also makes an appearance on the underside of the plane.
Across the plane, additional details fill out the design. Near the front of the aircraft is the Panthers simplified Florida flag, which mirrors the logo worn on the shoulders of the team’s jerseys. And for longtime Cats fans, a palm tree and hockey stick offer a nod to the historic Panthers secondary logo.
Taking South Florida Higher
“Go Cats Go” is the latest expression of JetBlue and the Florida Panthers expanded partnership and shared commitment to South Florida. At Amerant Bank Arena, JetBlue is the presenting partner of the newly reimagined Champions Club and JetBlue Landing, which brings fans closer to the action through special events and experiences.
Beyond the arena, JetBlue and the Panthers continue to invest in the community through initiatives like the Panthers’ Reading Challenge, encouraging thousands of Broward County Public Schools students to read and rewarding winning schools with books, celebrations and special Panthers experiences.
For JetBlue, this partnership expands the airline’s longstanding commitment to serving the region. Fort Lauderdale was JetBlue’s first destination when the airline took flight in 2000, and more than 25 years later, the airline is making some of its biggest investments yet in South Florida. Today, JetBlue is the largest carrier at FLL, with over 150 peak daily departures to more than 60 nonstop destinations this winter.
Now, the airline’s South Florida commitment includes an aircraft that wears its Florida pride for everyone to see. With the state name stretched boldly across its belly, “Go Cats Go” is a flying statement of JetBlue’s history and the importance of South Florida to its future.
