Whats your prediction on JetBlues next base?

[FlyboyPhil]

Just got the offer, live out west, willing to commute in the near term before moving to a base in a year or so, trying to make an aircraft decision, thinking one in the hand with the Airbus and LGB for now..
But always in search of the most accurate and informed information...

Where will JetBlues next Base be?
When?
Which aircraft?


The winner gets bragging rights and a free pen from the next hotel they stay at.....

Next base MCO, undoubtably. Prob 3rd quarter 08. Prob both airplanes, mostly 320. There is some debate whether it'll be a traditional base or a virtual base.

As far as the west coast, maybe OAK/SFO/SJC co-base one day. Ive heard the rumor, as have most, but that's all ive heard.

You can keep all the prizes, I got enough hotel pens.

Just got an offer as well for January 9th Class date. Does anyone happen to know an aircraft breakdown for that class date by any chance?

The Hotel Pen offer still stands, but I would be willing to add a complimentary Hotel Shampoo and Conditioner at your next hotel stay.

As of right now it looks like both A/C. No numbers on the split and subject to change of course.

CL65er.. I was offered Dec 12th or Jan 9th.. and Verna said both aircraft for both classes.. not sure on the numbers for each..

Last LGB propaganda session Russ Chew hinted at the E190 coming west "Aprilish '08." No guarantees or promises. It's all clear as mud at JB.

I know some May07 hires are at LGB on reserve, FWIW.

Freinds tell me MCO by mid 08 and most likely a "virtual base" first. Word on the street is that OAK or SFO could be a base. Hey...if the DAL/UAL merger goes through...SLC would be wide open and DN would LOVE to get ahold of THAT city!!!

I've heard like everyone MCO, almost a given it seems. Maybe IAD next.

I would be surprised if it's a 190 base right away. Maybe they will let it warm up and then bring the 190, like they did with BOS. IMO, we need another base yesterday.

What will you do if you get E190 out of JFK? Are you willing to commute for the length of the seat-lock if the E190 does not go West?

Have you looked at Virgin America and its West Coast base? Not sure if they will open an LA base but SFO would be an easier commute than JFK.
