Don't know much about insurance costs here or there, sorry. Thankfully our contract prohibits picking up out of base, but regrettably we allowed them in our last CBA a "global open time" to be used under certain circumstances (and to my knowledge it has not been used). Pilots are under no circumstances required (or asked) to clean airplanes. That trope has been played out for years, thanks for your **** poor attempt at demeaning humor. No one gets disciplined for using the commuter clause. You're welcome for your (pending litigation) large upcoming pay raise.
Halon is a moron, so don’t take the bait of his trolling.
He is correct about the healthcare, JBLU options are inferior to NK and hopefully that can be improved on.
As far as you flexing about a pay raise, come on. There is a reason your company is overpaying to historic levels to acquire NK, and it’s safe to say JBLUs own future wouldn’t be roses without those planes and growth. So sure, NK will thank you for those “large pay raises” (which it isn’t) as soon as JBU thanks NK for not getting swallowed up by the big 4
Like it or not, both airlines need each other to survive. Maybe not survive in the sense of going away, but survive as in being able to compete, grow, and be successful.
