Jblupilots....
 

Has over 600 jetblue union member pilots on board after 8 months in operation. If your on APC because you want to avoid the septic tank which is Bluepilots, there is an alternative.

No ads, no craziness, no personal attacks, run and paid for by an actual line pilot (me). Real names encouraged (at about 70% on this).

Use your full name jetblue email account to sign up.

Holy moly, had no idea. Thx

Awesome, I've signed up.

Thanks for reviving this thread.

The site was started in 2018 and is still going strong with a great group of pilots.

I used to “advertise” more when I first started the site but let word of mouth carry it the last few years.

With all the sign-ups in the last few days maybe I should BTT this thread every once in awhile.

Is it basically where the juicers go for a safe space? :)

and the cowards stay on here for a safe space. There should be a place for everyone.

Not sure cowards is the right description. Just like politics these days, people only seem to go to news sources that tell them what they already want to hear, so I'm curious if JBLU pilots is the same? Are there people there that discuss the actual realities of the company, or is it just a big juice festival?

it's a pretty real discussion with some known rebel rousers in the mix. With out the anonymous nature it is far more reserved towards the individuals on there. And yes there are some known juicers on there as well. It is closed to the public so unlike on here the worries of management seeing aren't there. About 75% use their real name on there.

Thanks, if it was 15 bandwagons All telling each other how smart they are. I think I would lose my mind.

So much better than bluepilots

it doesn’t leave you questioning the mental sanity of your coworkers.

Then it's fake;)

I would agree with you on that. It's not 50/50 juicers to rebel rousers but its fairly even and far more honest

No kidding there.

He’s basically the same on there too as he is on BP

🤣🤣

filler…..

Oh I think you would absolutely enjoy it.

It’s basically the House of Lords vs the BP House of Commons with all the crazy screaming and yelling.

That's a good endorsement. Maybe someday.

We need 76 more signups to hit 1000.

Seven years and still going. Still no politics or personal attacks. Still better than Bluepilots.

Run by an actual line pilot.

No ads, never will be.

It’s not as easy as potato farm but less drama.

Rumors, layover ideas, important phone numbers, GA flying stuff, easy upload of graphics and videos.

best forum out there for JB pilots.

If by best you mean lamest.

It's pretty dang blue juicy. Wouldn't recommend.

Bring your kid gloves because everyone gets a trophy. It was a good try irv.

The Bluepilots thunderdome is not friendly, and it isn't a safe space. Viewer discretion advised.

JBLUpilots is a wholesome happy place. Rated G

Is that management guy still moderating over there? Glad that tool doesn’t post here anymore. He’s one of the reasons I stopped going to irvs lame site. Although with or without him though that site is a giant waste of time.

Theres more than a few tools over there that resemble management.

Every time I consider it I just fear it's a juicer site.

Sounds like the place is worse than a well done steak or a Miata.

that’s a bingo

my favorite part is to watch one poster bash bluepilots on jblu but start all kinds of arguments on bluepilots (and I like the guy) it’s very entertaining.

jblu pilots definitely has the feel of the more highbrow we don’t stoop to that level sight (just make sure you hold the correct views or you might have a part of your post edited)

Both have a valid space

just depends do you want the thunder dome or are you in the mood for Mr Rodgers Neighborhood

What if want a site that is actually about JETBLUE and JETBLUE PILOTS yet isn't a bluejuice serving station?

This APC sub forum is probably the closest to a middle ground.

At least more than 1 out of 10 posts is actually about JB. Can't say that about the Thunderdome.

yup that’s about right.

I created this site as the original alternative to Bluepilots. It was started pre potato farm. I considered a Facebook page but opted for web board.

It was started during the negotiation process of Contract 1 as a unifying tool to “get the message out”. I knew many people stayed away from bluepilots due to its reputation of being very political and immature.

When I didn’t allow politics, some people called it “the safe space” and went back to thunder dome. Ok see ya. There are enough spaces in the world where you can rage your opinions all you want, jblupilots isn’t one of them.

It’s not a juicer or a hater site. It’s a collection of mostly level headed people who are looking for info and sharing ideas.

The motto is discuss the idea not the person, so personal attacks aren’t ok. Level headed arguments are welcome as long as the conversation stays mature.

Again, I find this site to be pretty good. I’d rate it second to jblupilots. I’ve seen a lot of webboards and most turn into **** shows. I won’t allow that to happen. I’d rather shut it down if became another space to divide people.

I guess I can’t edit my post after some time has passed so i just want to add one thing…..

I’ve had to boot a small handful of people who can’t help themselves. One being of the far left and one being of the far right. I also recently let go of a moderator who was a bit too reactionary on the left and couldn’t see that most guys have good intentions.

But you do allow for politics in its own sub forum where it should be.

Yes, I make sure it stays off the main “rumor” section.

Political banter keeps the board alive in between questions about the company or events that require discussion.

Political fanatics go to a pilot forum to talk politics. Everyone else doesn't.

This. I “lost” my BP password a few years ago, after one of the psychos there told another dude who was decidedly liberal that he hoped his wife and daughters got raped, which would then teach him the value of multiple guns for home defense. I pm’d that jackwagon and invited him to say that crap in person, (it wasn’t even directed to me, and I happen to be a gun owner as well… but going after dudes’ families? Really?!) and told him making those comments in person would likely result in him losing some teeth. Said internet tough guy then ran to the base chief. I decided my career and blood pressure were worth more than being on a web-board where everyone hides behind their screen names after that. Solidly a fan of Irv’s board, where people disagree but at least try to keep a modicum of civility about it.

Bluepilots is an embarrassment and honestly concerning at times. One or two actual threads that are company/flying related on the main page and the rest is full of crazy conspiracy theories, far right wing ideas and lots and lots of hate for anyone who doesn't share the same opinion.
