Im not a 135 guy, however I have done 135 in the past. I've also never been turned down by Spirit. It was just a general question and those were the two airlines I used, because i've seen others on here saying saying Jetblue and Spirit could be bought out by some legacy in the future. I could have also chosen Spirit and American or Southwest and Delta, but I did't. I just chose two random airlines just for the sake of the question. So it would be nice if you could stop being a dick bag hiding behind your keyboard and have some courtesy when answering questions, thinking that you know what other people are experiencing.

Then you are at spirit or the review never turned into your hired based on your post history. So hired by them or turned down.... but if you are at spirit or any other airline you are clueless on how they work... when the questions are so stupid they are trollish leaves no room to actually answer your ridiculous question.

Let's say Delta bought Jetblue and they merged. Do all the pilots morph into Delta pilots or do B6 pilots have to interview with Delta and meet their standards? For example: The 4 year degree requirement delta has in place. I know most B6 have one also, but not all of them. Do those without the 4 year suddenly find themselves in the unemployment line?
Ask this question on the DL forum and you’ll likely get told the B6 pilots would have to re-interview

Please ask it! Also ask if hats will be mandatory.

The answer is that since JB pilots now have a CBA that covers this eventuality, we are guaranteed seniority list merger.

Before the CBA we had virtually no protection whatsoever. Of course the anti-CBA folks don’t even consider all the scope/merger/successor ship protections that we gained with a CBA because it’s all about pay rates.
