Most recent vacancy snapshot shows upgrade going to a January 2011 DOH.

Did you get a look at the latest system bid awards?

 

[BeachBummer]

Would you leave Netjets for JetBlue?

If your an NJA capt... You'd be nuts to leave to come to JBU. Unless you have roots in BOs or JFK its not a smart move.

You do realize this is just an opinion board and facts are optional, right?
Do your research or buyer beware.

JB isn't a bad job if you really need a job.
However, JB is your goal, you REALLY need to reevaluate.
Reset your standards MUCH higher.
Of course, we DO have great pizza and our wheel is much rounder...

Oops, well I wouldn't be surprised to see ours go to Jan 2011 DOH too

It might....but maybe all the super senior fos will upgrade now.
I guess we will find out soon.

This board would be the last place to go if I were looking for career advice. On that note, I would not leave NJ to go to JB.

How about who would leave JB for NJ. Live anywhere you want. Never commute again. Good medical bennies. It might be a tough decision for the furloughed NJ guys here at JB when the time comes to decide to go back.

 

[Baronman]

I 2nd that. This is a terrible place to seek advice. The guys who dislike jB, eat, breath and live it. It's like a full time job inside and outside of work.

Funny thing is I heard the same thing for 7 years re: United and CAL.

Day 2 new hire quit to go to CAL.

How many at CAL new hires are coming to Blue?

Only those that fail training?

 

[B6Driver]

The person could of lived in a CAL/ United base or any number of things that made their decision to switch. One fact to consider, do a search of Splerts past postings and see where he comes from. I'm just say'n. How does he know these things? On my days off I sure as *hit ain't worried about work, that's for sure.:beer:

None. Are you telling me that we could do something as pilots to make people leave legacy airlines to come to JetBlue?

We are a 2nd rate airline, and if we get a union, we will still be a 2nd rate airline. We will never have the retirements and high paying widebody fleets within any foreseeable timeframe. That coupled with our slow growth means very little career advancement. No union can fix that.

 

[B6Driver]

Slow growth?
