Will we have domiciles in more locations that pilots want to live in????

Will we have the same network breadth that make AA, UAL and DL so attractive to corporate and business travelers????

JB is not AA, UAL or DL. So I can completely understand why people would leave for those better opportunities, and it is for reasons far greater than just benefits and pay.
Human beings are lazy. If Bluejet paid industry standard with good benefits then attrition would be minimal. Of course some leave for the above reasons but the vast majority would stay.
