jet blue new hire questions

[falcondrivr]

considering the current hiring and training pace at jet blue, coupled with the growth slow-down, does anyone have an opinion on how long would it take to:
1- go from interview to class date (lets say for an airbus)
2- be able to hold lgb.
and 3- upgrade in lgb.

I think the real question should be, will JetBlue even survive if several majors merge and continue to offer the "SAME" service for the "SAME" price as JB?

I think the street thinks it will help JetBlue (Look at the stock price). Lower capacity = higher fares. JetBlue has carved itself a nice niche in the Northeast and Florida. Any consoldation will only help the company thrive.

1. - maybe about 4 months
2. - About a year +
3. - At least 6 years +

So passenger X buys a ticket from city A to B. He or she gets online and goes to cheaptickets.com or whatever.


Delta $108.00
JetBlue $108.00
American $115.00
USAirways $109.00

And American has a better time arrival........

Who is passenger X going to pick?

Blue potato chips aint that cool, Budrow!


Good luck. Oh, and save this post and tell me I'm wrong in 36 months. $1000.00 says your management will be asking for $$ within 2 years. But hey, you fly for a major.... Right?

Another angry pilot who has all the answers.

I agree

Falcon, what a great post. I have to agree, I'm so sick of threads being taken off topic. If you want to bitch, start your own thread so no one will read it. Otherwise, if you know the answer to the question, answer it. If not, move on.
