JetBlue Pilot Hiring in 2020 & Beyond
JB put out at VIB 2019 that they plan on hiring 500+ pilots in 2020. I’ve heard it echoed by JB pilots that the company is planning to hire 3,000-4,000 pilots over the next 5 years.
What is the validity of this information? A320neo series aircraft are coming as replacements for older aircraft + A220s coming to do mostly 1:1 replacements of the E190s? Attrition? Growth?
I’m interested in JetBlue, but I’m curious as to what the outlook is for the company and if I’m going to stagnate at the bottom of the seniority list for many moons.
