To the jetBlue pilot too lazy to send in an interest card

Guess we shouldnt talk about the 21:30credit 3 days we used to do that got done at 5am on day three..

These new pilots trying to " find their way " may just call me a liar

Funny how i pull up my schedules from 6 years ago and I was getting 85-90hrs with 18-20 days off..

Now on a good month i get 16 and typically 15 days off for low 80's credit

At least i am fortunate to get the majority of my flying commutable

Hey its fun to work an extra month and a half more a year for less pay and horrible benefits

could this because JB goes to different place than 6 yrs ago? like DFW, ABQ

The E190 / split fleet type killed our productivity.

That is probably the 80% cause.

Dropping mid week city pairs during rtp was and is 50% of the problem. The rest is the average rig.

Well we have almost doubled out flying over the last 6 years. You would think the opposite would be true.

I have heard so many pilots here bragging about intentionally timing out to have the last legs removed from their trip. If you want high time productive trips, you have to be mature enough to actually fly them, unless delays that are out of your control cause you to go over the limits. I am VERY confident that those on this board compaining about the loss of productivity would fall into that same group...

In addition, I think it is common knowledge that the company is trying to IROP proof the pairings by not having them built up near FAR limits. While we have lost considerable productivity (which sucks), we are not (yet) dramatically behind the productivity of other narrow body pilots, other than SW that is.

One of my personal top priorities for a CBA is a strong 5.5-6+ hr min day. That will help pay us for our time away from home.

Where is your data?

 

[Smarta$$]

Where is your? Comparing what we used to have is not the same as comparing to other companies. Most narrowbody pilots average about 5 hours a day unless they are very senior and get the best trips. Southwest being the big exception.

 

[Splert]

You said it.

Where is your data for: "most narrowbody blah blah blah".

Back it up with more than just pulling it out of your a$$!

 

[Smarta$$]

Prove me wrong with your data.

 

[Splert]

Translation. You have no data (ie pulled it out of your butt which is also Greek for JetBlue said).
