Gouge for guys that know nothing about the airlines and want to skip the line in front of qualified guys flying in the industry for a decade? Good luck with that. Happy jetting.

Q1. When can you get us $125,000?

Q2. Do you know the difference between an airplane and a fish?

Q3. When can you get us that $125,000?

Q4. Are you an active member of the LGB community?

Q5. So, when can you get us the $125,000?

Q6. Do you pledge to thwart the union of over 3,300 JB pilots at every opportunity?

Q7. Could you get your parents to cosign a $125,000 loan?

Q8. Do you enjoy being a brown-noser?

Q9. Did you know that if, for any reason, you don't make it through the program we get to keep your $125,000 and that you'll have a great big black mark on your record?

Q10. Would you like to buy some beachfront property in Nebraska?

That's what I can remember. Good luck!

Rainbows and Unicorns,

GP

Come on guys. It's ok to not like the program, but don't take it out on the individuals that want to be pilots.

I know ALOT of people who want to be pilots. More specifically they want to be JetBlue pilots. They've all been struggling and sweating for 8-10 years TRYING to get to a company like JetBlue. Raising kids on Regional pay. Flying legacy passengers around for years while being spat on by "real" pilots and mgmt. some of them flew combat. Now they want to bring ALLLLLLLLLLL that time, experience, and knowledge to make our pilot group safer, more professional and bring value to a brand we care about.

To spend the better part of a decade squiring this experience was hard work. Now we have a program for people to jump to the front of the line. All for the low low retail prpice of $125K.

So you'll excuse them if they feel a bit short changed by the millennial with mommy and daddy's checkbook. Who "wants to be a pilot"
