Leaving Jetblue

Oh really?!?! You must live in a bubble.

Why do you always chime in to JB threads?

About 5 months ago when I was down in initial there was a rumor that there were approx 150 requests for PRIA records from FedEx for pilots currently at JB

Heard the same thing. Wish it were true, have seen no evidence of it yet.

FedEx is a tough life for a lot of guys. During 05,06,07 we had significant attrition. Greater than 10%. Should airlines start hiring again you will see the same thing.

Lots of guys I know interviewed at FedEx. Now if they get hired/take the job that is a different story. My guess is that most will go. Second year at FedEx beats most pay rates at Jetblue.

Have many furloughed USAir east folks gone back?

Why do you always chime in to JB threads?

Why do I? Because I feel like it. Don't like it, tough sh!t. I have many friends there, and not at all happy. Get over it.

When are you leaving Alice?

Remember all the pilots who left SWA, FedEx, UPS, etc in 2000-2001 for the great jobs at UAL, AAL, DAL, NWA, USAirways. When you make a move there is an element of luck. Often is will take 10 years before you know if you made the right move.

Well then I guess you are the expert. Enjoy your AMAZING 91 job.

I think there will be a noticeable, not expansive, attrition of mid to senior FO's at Jblue for the majors in 2013. The draw of heavy international metal will win over schedules and bases. It's the pilots way.
