Republic 145 FO or Jblu?

SO........if you had the choice......YOU would take CHQ over Jet Blue if you had the choice?! - Just want to make sure - Fins it just came off that way and I want to make sure.

 

[FlyWolf]

JetBlue with no doubt

Quick upgrade at Republic or to a "Major" with fairly low pay and seemingly low moral and uncertain future?

That is a creepy question.

Bye Bye--General Lee

JetBlue is a major. $1B annual revenue.

Using the DOT criteria for "major", not only is JetBlue one, but so are Chautauqua, ExpressJet, Comair, Skywest, and probably Pinnacle. Not exactly useful information for this conversation.

I didn't read that in his post at all. In fact, just the opposite.

Go where you will get 1000 hours turbine PIC the quickest. Most of the guys saying "go to JB" all have 1000 plus turbine PIC and can jump ship if they need to. That box checked will protect you in the future when (not if) you find yourself looking for another airline job.

Not bitter, just trying to give some wise advice from someone who has been there.

OK, for the sakes of coversation, how do we define a major?

Like it really matters.

Anywhere that a FO can make 6 figures. That's my definition.

Hopefully this turns out right, but here it is. (one definition)​

Yeah...uhhh JetBlue Meets that definition.

Also, funny that Frontier is in there already since they just became a major last week (see definition)

Also, that Wikipedia Article is a STUB, which means it was written by someone and that does not necessarily mean it is 100% accurate.
