Jetblue CEO says its considering 787/A350 for Latin America

[Smarta$$]

Why do we deserve any better than that anyway working for a company with no benefits, no retirement and no career movement. Remember, this is not a career airline right?

You already agreed that a 'Fair Integration' is 50% of the pilot list being stapled. That is what the jetblue pilot group agree is a FAIR Integration.

What the hell do you think is going to happen if we get bought? Hell, The last time AA hired we didnt exist! That was going to happen anyway, and if you think even the top 50% is going to get a good deal in a merger/buyout you are living in a dream world

Okay, so JB might be buying new aircrafts. When are they going to start interviewing again?

Don't hold your breath. Spring 2013 at the earliest would be my guess.

When they need another 300 "NO" Voters to run through Blue-Re-Education.

Yeah, yeah, I know...

...nobody voted "NO" except a handful of BoBs.

Dumba$$.

You DO know that anybody hire May and later of 2011 was not eligible to vote, right?

Blame the "I've got mine" guys like yourself if you want to blame someone.

This is probably accurate. Word is there are like 120+ in the pool. That will have to be drained first.

Word is 250+ next year, but believe it when you see it. That's what they said abut this year too.

The so-called "I've got mine" guys are the one's who worked tirelessly on the FIRST, the SECOND, and the THIRD union drives while we watched the endless stream of "happy to have a job" guys fill the right seats.

Get educated son.

I fly with plenty of left seaters who are very anti union....

The majority of Captains I fly with are no voters. Of course, there are some newbies that are no voters, but a lot of them are slowly changing there minds once the blue juice is flushed. However, with the Captains, there are two common excused I hear from them: 1) "I don't like ALPA." 2) "2% is too much for me to pay."

When I have asked about the reduction in health benefits and increases in premiums, many have stated they are not aware of what's coming down the line, or they tell me how they have other benefits from the military or a spouse. I have also heard more than one Captain say that DB and RM have a good relationship with the pilots and they wouldn't do anything to jeopardize their reputation among us, so there is no chance we are for sale or anything negative could happen to us has a pilot group.

 

[linepilot]

Well I'm one of many senior captains that would love to strike this place silly.

 

[shadesofBS]

There are a solid 1500 lambs in both seats, civilian and military.

It's ironic that the best hope for this pilot group to ever see real airline pay and benefits is a buyout and a staple.

We just have to hope we aren't reinterviewing for our jobs.

Hey Cartoon Boy,

Integration doesn't mean our #1 is now #2 guy after the integration.

But to pre agree that a Fair Integration is a TWA/AA integration is just Bluejet Crazy.

But ya did!

Word is 250+ next year, but believe it when you see it. That's what they said abut this year too.

Last years number was based upon attrition and sold to the pilot group as 'look we are hiring". Implying that we are growing.

Next year we will 'hire' hundreds for attrition not growth if DAL, SWA, UAL, FedEx, UPS and Mesa start to hire.

I didn't sign the 5 docs f-uck nuts.


Maybe you should think before you open that hole in your face.

Anyway, if the PEA is as worthless as most of you claim, what the hell does it matter anyway?
