I see an issue with this . I am a guy that will have to land a 321 in Santiago at 0400 with weather , mechanical issues , mountains and lack of rest because Jetblue makes their reserves fly these types of trips with as much as a 21 hour duty day if it's a tail end deadhead . And you think it's...
Im on year 7 at JB . If we dont have Alpa by March Ill publish my apps for American,Delta,United and apply to Southwest and Alaska. I bid 30% on the 320 and Im 47. I love my job but this place gets worse every year. Do your research before you come here or wait til you see our first CBA then...
They have to hire to replace the Airbus Captains that leave to take recall at American,United and Delta soon . Destination airline? Not so much. American has much better healthcare and work rules in bankrupcy. United and Delta contracts blow away everything in Jetblues individual contract. The...
Be patient Guys and Girls in about a year there will be lots of hiring at JB. Organic growth ? Nope Guys getting recalled ,guys leaving to the majors. Most Delta and American furloughs will go back. I hold 190 CA and Ive applied to United. With the company looking at unlimited 2 way domestic...
Plan a vacation? How senior are you? 6 Years at B6 and cant even get sept 2 vacation week! You like that or are you that super senior FO afraid to upgrade and you get a week off in the summer? I come in with a smile and have a blast each trip. I dont make standup PAs bashing AA because the...
To all New Guys,
Welcome to Jetblue ! Last year jetblue overhired just prior to our SECOND UNION VOTE in a 2 year period. Those 300 newhires were enough to push the vote to fail. I dont blame them at all and most are now YES voters. I was on the OC last time and watched the whole failure unfold...
Do your homework before you come to JetBlue . The majors are also starting to hire . We are rapidly falling further behind them in all areas. On a brighter note we finally kicked off our 3rd union drive , yep 3 years in a row .
Mark is a self centered doushe working little side deals with management just like the BOBS at Jetblue ! Guys best of luck dont let losers like Mark drag you down and Lie to you! Guys like him have hurt our pilot group and caused us years of lower pay, crappy benefits and 401k. Bargain for what...
You sound like a shoe in at Jetblue and would be hired for sure but please dont apply on behalf of those 857 of us that want to make this a career . And let the management clowns and Ford and Harrison use those anti CBA lines. Seriously VA and JB are non union and lowest in overall compensation...
Well if an exec told a 1st year fo then it must be true. And you are giving them another year to fix it? Are they going to be giving us retro and interest lost? retirement is really the money earning interest not just the actual money , but you must know that if you are retiring at 52. Im sorry...
Ok so the Jetblue guys that sit on their computers 24 hours a day waiting for their FLICA ALERTs so they can run back to the airport and fill every little whole in their schedule with some more soft time, they make a decent w2. Its all good until they get sick,injured,or need retirement. All...
Congrats on the offer!! I know a bunch of guys at Netjets and they all love it there. In my opinion it is the only place to go right now. A sept newhire just left for Netjets. They get 100 new apps a day !!!!
Best of luck.
Its hard to believe someone was given class on June 20th, I didnt think they called anyone for the class on June 6th yet. When did your friend interview and when was he called for class on the 20th?
A Few Questions for Jet Blue Pilots
I had a few questions about quality of life at Jet Blue during the first few years there , and general movement in seniority , as well as upgrade times.
1. How long would you anticipate reserve to be in JFK, BOS on either plane?
