I’ll be different and suggest it won’t hurt to come to JetBlue rather than staying at SkyWest. Are you commuting? Obviously this would eliminate a commute. You could decide to stay if our financials fully turn around. Or go somewhere else if you choose to. A lot of people are happy working here, and for anyone to predict the future is impossible. I just think there are a lot more positives than have been said here so far and very few negatives. It’s not like you’re signing a 10 year contract at JetBlue. If you’re here and then wish to leave, you should be able to. And if you can’t, then it would seem the legacies are no longer hiring and you’d be stuck at the bottom of their list just like you would here. Ask American pilots about their reserve rules compared to ours.
Like I said, there are many people who like working here, and many who haven’t left even with thinking the grass is always greener elsewhere.
JetBlue may hire in 2025 as was stated recently, to cope with having so many pilots in transition training. They need people to fly the line. Feel free to message if you want more details on my open experience here.
2025 is hopefully the year JetBlue turns it around. What really happens after this very moment is anyone’s guess, good or bad.
