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.


We’ve been pretty steady over the years. I think net growth of 250-300 which would mean hiring around 400 is more likely. We’ll see what actually happens with a/c deliveries, attrition, etc
