JetBlue September 20 interview

[Eagleflip]

Congrats guys and gals! Welcome to the family. You'll like it, even if you do have to wear a blue shirt.

I think it makes me look slender.

 

[Eaglepuke]

Congrats guys. I am on a trip, so maybe I have a message at home. Or maybe I am a loser and they can't think of a nice way to tell me.

Flipper,

You're missing the point of the blue shirt. It brings out the blue in your eyes. Come to think of it, it does the same for mine.

Happy landings,

Hotel in MCO

Hey guys,

I got the call for the November 30th class. I chose the bus! Anybody know what type of hotel newhires stay at in MCO? I was wondering if it was an extended stay hotel with a kitchen? 6 weeks eating at restaurants gets a little old and expensive!

Hey guys,

Most newhire's get put in the Wingate in MCO. The rooms aren't bad at all and all have a microwave and fridge. I stocked up on plenty of Water, Tuna, Peanut Butter and Jelly and other sandwich stuff. Worked out well. Also, they have a pretty good breakfast in the morning with hot and cold food. You can grab a couple of yogurts/fruit etc... and take them to your room for snacks.

Lunch at JetBlue university is pretty damn good. It's only $3.75 and that gets you a great sandwich or salad + chips or slaw or potato salad and a drink. Coffee/Tea is free all day long. Everyone eats lunch at the University.

To be honest, it's hard not to go out each night. Someone is always going over to Chili's or Bennigan's or Hooter's etc.. for an ice cold one and some food. I dropped a ton of cash during training, but it was well worth it. I made some great friends and had a great time. It helped keep the stress level low.

If you can drive your car down for training, I would highly suggest it.

Good Luck.

Is anybody else still waiting?

I noticed that this thread hasn't seen much action for the last couple of days. Is anybody else still waiting to hear from JB regarding the Sep 20th phase II inductees? I was doing fine until I started reading about all of the guys getting classes and now I'm starting to lose sleep.

When I did my medical for United they somehow managed to lose my file for about two and a half months and allowed a couple of hundred guys to get ahead of me on the senority list. I sure hope that doesn't happen at jetBlue.

I hope to hear something soon. If anyone else is still out there, good luck to you too.

 

[Eaglepuke]

I have not heard anything either way. I have gotten my copies of FAA and PRIA searches, so I assume there is a hold up with something else. I am not sure if I should call and see if there is anything I can do to help or just keep waiting. But no news is better than a 'We're sorry, but. . . .' letter in the mail.

I figure that the two days we interviewed, they saw 200 plus people. Did phase two for about half that I think, maybe a bit more. Each class has how many? 25 tops? In the words of a great wise man, "All we need is just a little patience." So I guess I will spend a little more time jumping up everytime the phone rings.
