42.7% of JetBlue Pilots Have Apps Out

Overall QOL and pay at Republic is MUCH WORSE than JetBlue. FACT.

Maybe but the point he is making is when you come to a "destination airline" everything should be better. The fact that one of a pilots most important forms of compensation is so lacking says a lot about the company and what future hires will be dealing with. Begging for average everyday.

...From the latest pilot survey.

Another 23% are "Not Sure". It is therefore fair to say that better than 50% of JetBlue pilots are looking elsewhere.


The Titanic had less attrition....

Allegiant has just over 370 pilots.

21 have left since January.

All part of the growing hiring boom

Even a clock is right twice a day.

Hiring boom is a bit excessive.

This predicted high attrition is exactly why I dismiss the guys who say upgrades will be > 10 years for new hires.

Awesome. Upgrading due to attrition. Just like working for Mesa, Asa, Trans States, etc, only we have worse health insurance. But hey that doesn't affect you.

Im eager to read SMARTA$$ remark about this. Im just curious to see what this liberal leftist warrior will spring out to flightinfo. Im willing to bet he thinks anyone trying to get out of Jetblue are crazy or notorious.

Looking and keeping one's options open is not the same as leaving IMO.
Just say'n.

I was going to say the same thing - the survey question said "intend to submit an application". That's definitely not the same thing as updating logbooks, paying the airlineapps fee (if applicable) or actually filling out applications. Not the same thing as getting hired and darn sure not the same as actually pulling the trigger to leave and start over from the bottom.

Not saying I don't get why apps are going out. I just think that one thing is a far cry from the other.

Just like slow movement doesn't affect you because you're senior?

We have a winner!

How the F does "upgrades due to attrition" help the guys already captains at bluejet?

Anyone? Anyone?

If you are a Captain JB, you have better job than 90% of the pilot flying in the US. Six figure income, if senior a good schedule. My two buddies working there as CA's seem pretty satisfied with their lot in life compared to flying at JUS. BTW the housing bubble resulted in some real cheap real estate with a shortage of rental proprieties., not all bad
