JetBlue or Comair

[learjetguy]

Hmmm?

Pam Anderson or ... what kind of question is that?

It is not a bad question at all.....i know people that had to pick from netjets, and delta or some other major over the past few years. And they picked netjets....now they have a job, have a good seniority # and have that 7 on, 7 off schedule. Smaller planes...smaller pay...no brainer right? Wrong. Delta got punked by 9/11 and now the netjets guys are in the good spot. If you went with comair over jetblue.......and say another terrorist attack happened...and they decide to close JFK for a month....i think jetblue would suffer with there own crib shutdown. They closed reagon airport for a while.......and it helped put us airways in a world of hurt. I however, have to go with the crowd on this one and say do jetblue. either pick could easily become the wrong one though.

I hate to say this but you couldn't be more wrong about upgrading. The company does NOT have to double inorder for you to upgrade in a year. Even though it is a factor, it is not the most crucial one..... it all depends on the individual.... quality of life, schedules, bases, being scared to upgrade, not knowing the aircraft good enough..... it all plays a part and its really down to the individual. Look what happened at JB a little while ago.... upgrade was 6 month to a year because of the bust rate. Guys with no glass time were affraid to bid the upgrade. The A-320 is a great airplane, I loved flying it, but it could be a bear to get down for some people. Anyways to the questions at hand.... I would have no second thoughts about going to JB over comair, the business model for JB works. Better equipment, with a better product. And of course everybody is happy there...... I just wonder how long it'll be till the Jetblue Pilot Association kicks in? Good luck in your dicision.

This question must be a joke. Eat Ramen Noodles for a few years or prime rib?

dude, get used to eating MRE's very soon!!!

Is this a joke? Hmmmm. Well, seeing that Comair guys probably will be flocking to Jetblue when Delta turns them down, I'd go directly to jetblue. The A320 seems to be a nice plane too, with a lot more room than the CRJ.

Bye Bye--General Lee

What can be an obvious choice today could be the wrong choice for tommorrow when it comes to "what airline to fly for". 2 years ago every airline was GOLDEN, had big plans and was growing, and now its the LUCKY ones who still have a job flying. Comair has 125 aircraft now with 30+ plus coming this year with 1600+ pilots, more pilots when TWA was sold to AA, just like ASA pilot total which may have even more. You will make alot more money at jet blue, to start, but will you have more job stability in 5-10 yrs from now?? If Delta is still around Comair and ASA will be to. Will Jetblue become what they say they will, we need a crystal ball, and I wish i had one.
