I have around 6000 hours of total time - most of it is flight instructing. I've been an instructor, assistant chief instructor and chief instructor in the US and overseas. Currently with a regional and 1200 hrs TSIC. Any chance to score an interview with JetBlue?
Also....does anyone know when the current application window will close?

always put in an application and make them say no. You are in the ballpark. As others have said, we look at how many times you have applied.

Good luck

To everyone “wondering if they have a chance”.

You’ll never know if you don’t apply.

IMO in this environment you should be applying to every carrier you’d like to work at... and every one you don’t wanna work at. The best major airline job is the one that hires you.

I wish I had a nickel for every person to whom I have told this very thing. Apply. Today. Everywhere. Tomorrow may be your lucky day!

I've seen far too many great pilots turned away, and some real douchebags hired to believe there is much more than random chance in any airline's hiring practice.
