How can I possibly wrap my crew member brain around a 97.8% pay cut???? How can I continue to provide the jetblue experience?

I’m leaving. Adios Jetblue.

Replace me with a zero PIC time pilot who’s ready to fly a jet.

Oh yeah I have a $hit ton of Atlantic, Pacific and Indian Ocean crossings. So sorry you’re driving out the people who could help this place find it’s way across the Atlantic. But how can we go to Europe if we can’t get jets out of Las Vegas when a SNOW STORM IS FORECAST!!

Look, I know a 97.8% reduction in profit sharing payout (due to a management imposed formula change) is awful and is a terrible way to lead a company, but....

At least JB wasn't mean to that passenger who wouldn't give up his seat.

M'I-right J-Train?!?!?

As an outside observer, I was surprised the pilot group didn’t vote down the TA after seeing the gains that Delta and Southwest got their second time around this last cycle.

Yea, he’s a loser. I got $450. 10.... year... Captain.

It didn't help that B6ALPA even bothered to pass along the TA in the first place. When you send a ray of hope, even a substandard one, to a group of defeated people who don't know any better, what do you think will happen? JB pilots have learned to love their low standards, lack of self respect, and loser management team.

That was my biggest gripe. I was very disappointed in the nc/mec putting this through to us.

I’m not saying this to brag, just clearing up the confusion.
JB used to pay 17%. Seriously.

It’s currently the payout election period until March 6th. Whether you want the cash on a separate March 15th paycheck or have it go into your 401k.

It's there. If you do nothing, you will get it in your bank. If you so choose, you can opt to put 75% in your 401K.
