What other airlines are hiring? Is JetBlue the only game in town?
Hiring: USAirways, Alaska, Hawaiian, Allegiant are the only major pax airlines I can think of. Probably some ACMI carriers and foreign types like Emirates.

I am hoping for 250 newhires in 2013 here, but prepared for 0. Good luck to all.
