thruthemurk said:Nice to be so confident...your lack of industry experience is showing. A great shortcoming of many of the pure military background guys at JB is that they believe everything they are told. Their 3,4 or 5 years of airline experience has shown them the way everything works- after all its just been airline biz as usual, right? Get back to me in 10 or 15 years when you have the slightest clue what you are talking about.
By the way, Let's do the math.
The most senior 320 Captain at JB working 85 hours makes:
(85*126)+(15*63)*12=$139860 Salary and total.
(0) Retirement
The most junior 320 Captain at UAL working 85 hours makes:
(85*126)*12= $128,520 Salary
($128,520*.15)=$19,278 Retirement (not taxed)

The most senior Captain on the A-320 at JetBlue has around 6 years on the property. How many United Captains are there on the A-320 who only have 6 years on the property? You're not comparing apples to apples here. Realistically, I don't think you have anyone who's a Captain at United with less than six years on the property. I think it would take 10-12 years to make Captain on the A320 at United. Even now, the Captain upgrades to the 320 at JetBlue is around 3-4 years. Realistically, if you want to compare total earnings, compare what a 6 year United FO makes against a 6 year Capt at JetBlue who was hired on day one as a Captain!
