How do you figure Jetblue makes this now? Our TA has higher rates than what I can see on APC posted for JB. Especially when you include the 321 override.

As far a negotiating a me too clause, any me too clause is highly unlikely to be agreed upon (nonstarter from management) because it makes their cost increase an unlimited risk. United is certainly the exception to the norm. As has been said, you can negotiate for anything but you need to get them to agree to it, thats the hard part.

Of course we all WANT more but it doesnt matter what we want, reality is what it is. Denying reality will get us nowhere. Nobody wants to say this during negotiations. We have to puff ourselves up for the fight and at least act like we are in a position of power. That time is gone and passed. Now we need to do what is best for us considering where we are now.
