And oh my gosh, 27 in one year. Seriously? Also, get your facts straight, it's been 24 so far this year. Ok, so I'm seriously tired of this. JetBlue may not be one of the legacies but it's only just over a decade old. Recently voted in ALPA and will soon (ok, well within a year or two) have a CBA. Guys that diss this airline really have no clue. I'm proud to fly for JB and drink the blue juice every day. I have friends with the "legacies" that fly on JB for personal travel and love it. They diss their own airline when I'm letting them know the loads on JB. There was once a time that people thought people staying at SW were fricken mad. Well with JB, only time will tell.
It's great to be happy here. I've got 8 years with no intention of leaving, but my eyes are wide open about our working conditions compared with my peers at Delta, United, etc. Frankly, being 15 years old is no excuse at this point for the regression in our insurance, hotels, etc. And to put the resignations in perspective, we churn a lot of guys in the 1-3 year seniority range over to DL, UA, and AA. The correct number last year was 110. To put the number in perspective, how many guys with 1-3 years at the big 3 have their apps in here? And if you're going to drink the bluejuice, wouldn't you rather have the company invest resources somewhere other than training guys to make them more competitive for a legacy?
