When Jetblue reached their AIP a week after ours, basically one upping us, then yes we should have gone back immediately and asked for more.
And since you asked about leaving...
I didn't leave because I was one of the naive dumb@$$es who bought into the bites of the apple nonsense and "building our legacy." I took them at their word for it, and I actually believed that B6 management had honest intentions of merging the two companies. Obviously that ended up being about as far from the truth as one can get.
Definitely learned my lesson!
