Hey RideandDrive !

Congratulations.

As for yesterday, I kinda jumped in there. Have gone back and read the earlier posts. (I just don't like the word dubious - nothing personal)

Welcome to B6.

Well said. Anyone getting feedback from their references?
 
So I hear next clases are March 29. How far in advance can we expect to receive the call?..
Thanks
 
I got called on a Sunday evening 2/13 for a 3/1 class. I ended up giving my current employer a little less than two weeks (last day 2/24). I had, however, told them that I would leave if I got the call and that I may need out in a little less than the standard 14 days. Worked ok for me.

I'd be prepared to get called as late as two weeks out. Just my guess though. I think I read on this thread someone got called for an earlier class with about a weeks notice. I assume that he told the interviewers that he was available on a short notice.

Good luck. Hope you get called soon.

Congrats on the call. Nice turn-around time too. Was that a conditional offer and what choices did they give for A/C?
Cheers

Just so you all know, the 3 classes for March are all for both A/C, your choice. They give you a nice email packet to help you make your choice too. Class act operation! :nuts:
 
Any News?

If you take the job, and decide to leave within a year or so, do you have to pay back training expenses since you signed a 5 year contract? Curious, does anyone know? Thx

Only if you return to your most recent Pt 121 carrier.

What percentage of people who make it to Phase II get hired? Just curious.

I hear is very high, something like 90-95. BTW, what's the packet saying upgrade time is on the 190?
 
Hey Guys,
I just got the call from lovely Miss Verna! I got the call about 6:15 eastern. It was a conditional for 15 March in the 190. She said the training records are all that is left and they should be done by Wednesday. I actually had just sat down to dinner and my 6 and 3 year olds are really into the "JetBlue thing" since I brought them home some trinkets from the interview. We had just finished our prayer where we included asking for a call from Verna, when the phone rang! Talk about connections! Anyhow, thats all I have for now. Good Luck to all.

I got the call tonight for A320 on March 29th. Verna said there are slots for both 190 and 320 on the 29th. All other March classes are full. Conditional offer based on one last background check still outstanding. Great to talk to Verna and get the news. Everyone hang in there, the call will come and it is worth it.
 
Busy day for VK! (that lovely lady) I Got the conditional this afternoon, waiting on training records as well. Still spots open for either airframe on 15 or 29 Mar. Maybe the 15th filled up since my phone call.
Best of luck to all.
 
Tried calling VK today for an unrelated question. She is on the road until Friday, so there may not be any calls until then.

In regards to paying training expenses or reimbursement of any kind if you leave JB after being hired:

So in my case, as a former Indpendence Air pilot, if I were to get a class date from JB, go to school in MCO and then be offered a job by UPS or FedEx, I can leave without any penalty???

That should be true since Indy Air is gone? Thanks.

Yes, that is true.

Congrats guys!
Keep those good calls coming! Hey, heres a "what would you do" question. I have a conditional offer for the 15 March 190 class but the FAA procedure for getting JetBlue the PRIA is "slow". (anyone who has had a government job knows this means "its 3PM on a Friday and no one is in the FAA office) The PRIA info has to come direct from the FAA, so a faxed copy from me is no good. I have my copy of the PRIA dated 24 Jan. I know the record is good, but it is hard to leave a job at NWA for a conditional class at JetBlue when I can simply put the class back. I hate to give up seniority, but I have a family to consider. Any inputs?
Thanks,
SRT

It all depends on how strong you feel your PRIA checks will turn out. You have a copy from just over a month ago so you "know" it's good. If nothing has changed since then you should feel confident that JetBlue is going to give you the final thumbs up. If that's a true statement then I would take the class you are scheduled for. If there is any question as to whether or not your checks will come back negative then I would wait. Seniority is important, but family comes first in my opinion.

Sounds to me like you should be good to go for the 15th, but don't take a gamble if there is any question.

Good luck, and I hope to see you the evening of the 14th in Orlando!
