A Jetblue Airbus A320-200, registration N571JB performing flight B6-1751 from Fort Lauderdale,FL (USA) to San Juan (Puerto Rico) with 151 people on board, was climbing through 2000 feet out of Fort Lauderdale's runway 09L when the crew reported they had a bird strike at about a 1000 feet just past the departure end of the runway and wanted to return to Fort Lauderdale but did not need assistance/priority. After working the checklists, about 5 minutes after levelling off, the crew declared emergency as a precaution. A runway inspection found no debris. The aircraft landed safely on Fort Lauderdale's runway 09L about 25 minutes after departure.

A postflight inspection revealed the right hand engine (V2527) had ingested a bird.
