No one knows that for sure, and that attitude only serves to give the company more time, whether intentional or not.
And we are NOT plowing through ANY sections that cost money.
I also don't think having some of you guys painting JetBlue in a more flattering light than they deserve at a critical time like this or saying "just give it time, things are getting better/will be great" could ever be considered "working together".
Hardly what I said but sure man.
Good luck with your tactic whatever it is.
Also since you have a bit of a reading issue. Where did I say give it more time. I specifically said the CBA should already be done.
Also I said THE SPIRIT guys said we were "plowing through" and relative to ONLY them we are. But that does not mean much.
Look if people are holding on to anything because of my opinion they need help. It's my opinion just like yours and both together are worthless.
But do you honestly think things won't get better? If that was the case you are going to want that 2% back. I pay my 2% because I want things to get better and the only way is with a CBA
I have been totally honest here it is again.
JetBlue cares about MONEY
They are an East Coast airline
They fly narrow bodys
They have a young pilot group
We have almost no retirements for 10 years
All upgrades are based on growth(we know how that goes)
We are slowly working on our first CBA
And the care about MONEY
That is the current JetBlue, will it always be like that maybe but you should plan on what it is now.
I hope that is not spreading false hope.
