By the way, I expect the contract to address this issue.

Year 2....$106.50/hour-Spa
$95/hour-JB
Year 3. $115/hour-Spa
$111/hour-JB
If you're current job/financial situation allows you to wait until later this year to take the JetBlue job, then I would wait. Unless you live in a Spirit base. Or apply to the Big 3. Good luck in your decision.
