Oh SNAP! UAL and Spirit are hiring...

SNAP? Even my 10yo wouldn't be caught using that.

 

[B6Busdriver]

Sorry... Whos B6....

Stands for better than Mesa.

Depends ... If you are a RJ CA and are making 100K with vested retirement and summer vacation and a decent QOL wait for an offer from a career airline.

Within the next 3-5 years, you are going to find out that the above's days are limited. The Delta TA spelled the end of over 250 RJs. The new United TA requires 200 50 seaters to be parked and guess where that will come out of. XJT and other UAX regionals. It's the mentality like that gets many people stuck, don't fall for the trap. Jetblue is still a far better option than being a senior RJ Captain doing contractual feed.

That didn't take long.

Pool dried up. Applications on file very low.

Seems like an outfit tens of thousands of pilots don't want to work for.

Don't kid yourself. People want to come to JetBlue.

The hiring numbers I've heard range 300-350 newhires, and as always, are subject to change.

Not sf the bottom of the list commutting to reserve.

Don't fool yourself
We have very apps on file and even fewer that are up to date.

Come to Jetblue to improve your quals and build some time, then be ready to jump ship at the first opportunity. This airline should be a revolving door for most young flyers who have their heads screwed on straight, who have clean records, and are paying attention to the trends and changes in the industry. Don't sell yourself short and understand that Jetblue is not your "friend."

Spectacular. Just what we need.

The supply of the "it's better than Mesa" crowd seems to never run out. Interesting how this discussion NEVER comes up on a Delta/UAL/FDX/SWA hiring thread. But as soon as JetBlue hiring is mentioned, someone feels the need to reiterate that JetBlue is better than a toilet regional.

Aim high boys....your destiny of mediocrity awaits you in the right seat of a 190. Along with a $2600 health insurance deductible. That's up 325% from last year, by the way.

Aim high....
