Jetblew is messed up in so many ways.

If you want a real career in the airlines, you need to avoid this total waste of time.
 
We are 18% behind our peers (pay only) and their touted 13% raise is really only a 6% raise at my 90 hrs of credit. (They took our premium pay away)

I'm pissed.

Can't believe they took away premium pay... JB has had that since they started.. That was always one of the major draws to JB....
 
Jetblue seems like a good place for regional FO's who will take anything no matter how bad it is there, older pilots that legacies wont look at and Jetblue knows they are not going to leave, or CapeAir pilots that never flew a jet and think of it as a "cool, i get to fly a jet" factor. Am i in the ballpark?
 
Within 5 minutes if you can't figure out who the sucker in the room, odds are you're (we) the sucker.
 
Justblike regionals, they need pilots to leave to keep labor costs low. Duh!
Training increases are only surpassed by labor savings. Boom goes the dynamite
 
The solution to reinstating premium pay is to stop flying overtime. If 1/4 of the pilots who normally fly overtime stop doing that for a couple of months, the company will likely reinstate premium pay.
Or at the very least, reduce the amount of overtime you fly.
