JetBlue gouge for SPV or LOE

[aewanabe]

Lots of things are wrong here. Commuting, not so much of an issue. I've had one time in 5 years where I just couldn't make it in. (IROP, everything went down the tubes). I called in honest, received an OOP, told the ACP about it, and never heard anything else. Never felt like my job was in jeopardy.

Thanks, good to hear.

Would you guys characterize JetBlue schedules (thinking forward several years) as efficient (high time, high days off)?

Is the business model (what you may know of it) to grow beyond the orders they have through 2016?

Do reserves fly much? Does JetBlue use airport reserve? If so, how long is it and does it have a pay credit? Do reserves break guarantee ever/often?

Sorry for all the questions, just want to make informed decisions.

I'm going to go against the grain and lay out the honest truth: if you really need the gouge to get through recurrent training... you really need recurrent training. It's supposed to be challenging and make you stretch some. If you know everything ahead of time, you're missing the point. It's already a no-jeopardy event. What else do you want?

OUTSTANDING advice! Thumbs up, Blue Dude.

We have very efficient schedules - but not for the bottom of the list. There we at least have rigs that mean at least 1 duty period is paid at 5 hours and 2 at 10 hours and 3 at 15 hours and 4 at 20 hours a trip rig atr 1 for 3.5 TAFB.

Reserves fly lots during the peak months and flying more and more in the off peak.

Novemember and December and some Summer months you probably will break guarantee and if you live in base you have other opportunities.

Airport reserve - yes but rarely used and we need to get you a hotel.
