A Jetblue Airbus A321-200, registration N995JL performing flight B6-355 from New York JFK,NY to Ontario,CA (USA), was accelerating for takeoff from JFK's runway 31L when the crews of other aircraft waiting for departure reported their right hand engine was on fire and emitting sparks, the A321 rejected takeoff at low speed. The Jetblue crew advised they had lost their second engine (V2533, right hand), other crews reported there had been flames from the right hand engine and it was now just glowing, a faint glow. The Jetblue crew offered to vacate the runway, vacated the runway onto taxiway Y and stopped on the taxiway for an inspection by emergency services. Another crew chimed in reporting a flock of birds had just risen from the runway at the time and region when and where the engine failure occurred. Emergency services requested the A321 to shut their engines down, the crew advised they had no APU and would lose power if they shut their #1 engine down. Emergency services reported the #2 engine was a little bit hot, but no smoke and no fire. After the inspection the A321 returned to the apron.

A replacement A321-200 registration N950JT reached Ontario with a delay of about 5.5 hours.
