JetBlue class dates

[Smarta$$]

That's correct, they were not active in our fleet. We have significant net fleet growth as far back as I bothered to look.

 

[Cavity]

Those two sold E-190's left the fleet years ago on lease. They weren't coming back, so no net loss there.

Well then, that's positive news.

Since you don't know what you're talking about, perhaps you should consider
not posting anything.

BWAHA! Yeah. I'll get right on that Chief.... just about the same time you stand up and dust off your knees!

 

[Lake Alice]

So you guys have established we are growing and our benefits still Suck. Good job guys.

That is about the jist of it, yes.

 

[Lake Alice]

Atleast we're all on the same page.

 

[Smarta$$]

LA, I think your record is broken. You should get that checked.

 

[Lake Alice]

Nah brutha. It's turning just fine.

50 more new hires starting class this year.

Where did you hear that?

 

[wrigley23]

50 more this year is a good start, when might the pool run dry? Something like 130 total.

What are the junior base/equip from junior to senior for BOS and JFK?

 

[CapnVegetto]

I believe most if not all the hiring this year is for the 190. You'll probably get BOS 190, it's the most junior seat in the company.

Most junior 320 base is JFK, but you can hold BOS pretty quick, too. I was able to hold LGB in about 8 months or so on the 320, but if you go to MCO, FLL, or LGB you'll be junior forever and ever and ever and ever. I've been here over a year and I'm still more than 100 numbers from holding FLL and even further from holding MCO. However, that is mostly due to no hiring and no upgrades. That will move quicker once the movement starts again, but it takes longer to hold Florida than anything, and you'll be junior a long time. Most of the Florida and LGB guys live in base, and are firmly entrenched in whatever seat they are in, with little to no desire to upgrade and/or commute again. There's not a lot of movement there.

Long story short, you're going to be in BOS or JFK for a long time, unless you want to be junior forever. If you're called for class this year, you'll probably be BOS 190, maybe JFK 190. I doubt they'll do any 320 classes. The last 2 bids they have been trying to get people to move from the 320 to the 190.
