It's exactly equal. $95/hour. The vast majority of JetBlue pilots are on the Airbus as I mentioned before.

Again. I said there are regionals out there with superior work rules and hotel standards (I know from experience, although I understand why you do not). That very fact is pathetic and speaks volumes. If you can't see that I deeply feel sorry for you. "Just keeps getting better" here, right?

I used the lesser paying plane at both companies to keep it even. Had I ued the higher paying ones, perhaps the salary difference would have gone from 7% higher at JB to 10%. Not sure. Certainly more there, and certainly more as the years move on, as it should be. But I think (and I am sure you would agree with me) that as a major, JB’s pay should be nowhere near a regional. Hopefully your management realizes that one of these days.

There’s no requirement to clean while on duty. You should help when nonreving. You’re free to decide your level of assistance in the given situation. This really isn’t that hard.
Let the FAs worry about FAs...
FAs who don’t like me because of my “pilotness” or “Pilot privilege” can go push a cart Because I don’t give an S.

There’s no “better than thou” attitude. You sound like a drunk in a bar looking to pick a fight because you’ve got a complex.

Where it is an issue is when you’re 12 deep in line at AA trying to commute and the incoming captain sees you, pulls you out of line and says we won’t leave without you. Or when you’re trying to check in with the cockpit. Or pushing past people at security. Without the epaulets and the salient, “I’m a pilot,” it looks like I’m a mutual fund manager or an insurance salesman trying to barge past the FAs. Can I interest you in some whole life insurance to protect your family from catastrophe? The wool coat is really great when preflighting in the rain. Wicks the rain right through to your uniform shirt. Awesome. Even the trench coat had a, “yep, that’s a crewmember,” look.

Anyhow, take off the overcoat indoors and problem solved.

And yes, the coats suck in the rain.
