JetBlue Jan 11/12 interview news?

[Caveman]

Throw my name in as one of the many bench warmers. Got my second copy Saturday of the FAA request. For me any news is good news and I'm just glad to have this forum to keep up to date.
I'm starting to go crazy just looking at my phone and willing it to ring. My interview call came via a "no caller id" phone call so now I have given it a special ring and my wife swears that I was humming it the other night in my sleep.
...Good luck to all...I'm sure the wait will be over soon

I didn't realize how important a resource this site was for keeping an eye on the industry until it went down the other day. I REALLY felt out of touch with what was going on with B6 and the whole phase II process. Even though I haven't got the call yet, following everybody else's progress and collecting the little tidbits of G-2 is very helpful (and comforting!).

Did JB say how many are they are hiring for 06?

 

[Caveman]

I think it's 530.

Ditto here....

Yep. Still here. Still waiting. I'm not getting anxious yet. We're just in the first week of that 8-12 week window. On saturday I got another copy of my PRIA stuff from the FAA. I guess that goes along with what somebody else posted earlier about some of the FAA stuff not being delivered to jetBlue and had to be requested again. I got the first copy about 7-10 days after the interview.

....I have been more of a lurker on this site over the past few months. I did interview on Jan 11th and am in phase 2. I received another FAA letter on Sat. stamped March 7th as well. I had received the same letter about 5 weeks ago, 1.5 - 2 weeks after the interview.

Hoping for the March 29th A320. I am based in Orlando and have a car there as well.

Did JB open up an MCO base recently?

BOS base opening June 1. Talk of MCO by the end of '06 to sometime in '07. Best of luck. PM me if you have any other questions.

That's good to hear. I live in Maine so that would be nice (still hypothetically speaking, of course). Bus/190 or both?

Also, living in Maine, I'm glad JB is moving into Portland. I know a lot of folks who trek from here to MHT for the SWA runs. I think Portland will work out well.

Well no letters from the FAA for me

Nothing here either, did you ever get one back in January?

 

[waterski]

Yes I did

I doubt I'll be getting a call during what's left of this evening so, for those of us still waiting, welcome to week 9. I think Caveman had it right: We were all told it could be 8-12 weeks. Maybe not knowing how many people have already been called would have been better for my sanity. Damn the internet!!!

I didn't really write "dang". I should post my feelings about the auto-change on the Sorry...U.S....Saddam thread.

Hey Guys,
There is no sign of a slowdown on the accaptance of airplanes here. I am sure you will be getting a flood of calls on schedule. #11 e190 showed up tonight. 2 more city pairs to be announced tomorrow. e190 problems being worked out pretty rapidly. Hang tough!
See you in MCO!

JAX and PIT?

I got my contract and benefit pack in the mail yesterday. I called to see if they had received my last background check (FOIA from FAA) and they did so they made my offer firm. A friend of mine also called and they said they were still waiting on his PRIA from the FAA. He received a second letter from the FAA as many others have said they did but JB has not received anything from the FAA. He was going to call the FAA to follow up and see what was going on. Hope this helps those still waiting. Good Luck to everyone and see you soon.

How did he know JB did not get anything yet? I along with most others would love to find out how they're doing, but I am not going to call them as per the instructions we got. They told me in the interview and email after that they did not want us to call JB to see how things were progressing. Just have to keep the faith and let the system work.
Fingers crossed and keeping good thoughts!

I think we are going to get news this week. They were busy last week sending emails for Phase I. Also a new class started last 15th.
Good luck to all of you.
