To those that left jetBlue....
It seems like you all signed a NDA after you left.
Any regrets? Anything you miss? Do you recommend?
I keep hearing “it’s really not much better at _______airlines.....they all have their problems”.
Did you find that to be true or not? The writing on the JETBLUE wall became much more legible in the last few weeks for me.

Friend of mine left for UAL last May. No NDA no regrets at all, happy as a clown.
Two friends have CJO for Southwest, both of them under one year on property. I think with the last ALPA email they'll be gone.
Most junior captains I fly with on the E90 are updating constantly waiting for the call.

At FedEx now. And I love it. The issues here are nothing like those at JetBlue, where it became a headache every time I came in to work. And I also love flying boxes instead of people; that alone removes over 50% of the B.S.
Oh, and a solid contract with pay, bennies, and work rules which blow JB out of the water. No regrets at all. Just wish I had done it sooner!

I went to the SWA page and asked for former B6 guys to message me. The feedback I got from the 3 that got back to me was all positive. No regrets. One guy was a little ****ed that he had to pay for his own uniforms and parking. But I think in the grand scheme of things, he’s still in the black.

I also went to FedEx and I couldn’t be happier. The pay, contract, and benefits are incredible. Instead of JB giving my family $800 a year for health insurance contributions, FedEx gives us $4k. I’m not flying regional routes during 12 hour duty days. I’m treated with respect. Oh, and dat paycheck.

Disagreements come from people spouting off bulls#!t about how regional airlines are better than B6.

There ARE regionals which have much better hotels and work rules than B6, which is shameful (for us, not for them).
