Within the past month or two we have voted in our LEC/MEC representatives and set up a Negotiating Committee. Soon i suspect the negotiating committee will work with the MEC to create surveys for the pilot group and figure out what our priorities are for a contract. Formal negotiations will begin, and the company and ALPA will present their "openers." That will serve as a starting point for negotiations over the next few years.

Probably not many changes related to jetblue joining ALPA over the next year or two, but we are getting a new CEO in Feb 2015, so id expect more changes related to that than anything else.
