JetBlue new top of scale pay rate ??

[fam62c]

If there is a bid I wonder if SW will enter the fray with an offer.

I thought it was well known that SW already had made an offer on us?

I am sure this release got potential rival investment groups stirred up.

Nope, do tell all please.

Don't believe much you read here. There is a new rumor every other week about who is or has made an offer. Also, there will be no B-scale. Don't take my word for it though. It will all come out in due time.

In the wonderful world run by the Direct Relationship, the company can do whatever they wish. They can even violate their own written agreements. They can create a B scale. They can give us the worst health care in the industry. They can give us laughable retirement benefits. They can give "special" pilots a better QOL than the rest of the flock. The only recourse a pilot has is to hire his/her own attorney and fight back. Of course one would be spending their own time and money while doing so.

If only there was a system of checks and balances in place where the employees could hold the company accountable for their actions. Hmmmm......perhaps there is a reason why more than 95% of airline pilots in this country are unionized.

Pilots of JetBlue, WAKE UP! Our last opportunity for representation is on the horizon. The DR is dead.

I can see where if one were on the side that had the perks, the 51% option, it would be hard to get enough votes to change that to share the wealth. That's an internal pilot problem, not an airline problem. Hope that changes for you guys.

So Reuters is misleading? What would make you believe? The day you put a new uniform color on?

Forget about union this and union that. That is merely a distraction from the M&A storm surrounding JetBlue.

Pilot mentality is that it always happens to someone else never to me. For some reason the group at JetBlue thinks that gravity does not apply. Some sort of special power. Denial is a strong emotion.

A merger will happen. When is the question.
