After our acquisition of LiveTV, we've found and most importantly our leaders have found that it is very difficult to shove a culture down one that already exists. The buyout has been a painful one. Can you believe it took nearly a year to put a sign on the hangar in MCO because LiveTV did not want Jetblue on it? It now says LiveTV on it... I really don't think we'll be seeing a merger of any sorts, any time soon!!! Additionally, we could've sent the 190s to a regional carrier that would've operated it even cheaper than the current rates, yes, let me say it again, even cheaper than the current rates-- but because our brand is important to our company, we decided to keep it under the same roof>>> Look at what Republic pays their 170 crews and you'll actually like the $37 per hour an F/O makes at Jetblue...
