It’s an educated guess, I can’t be 100% sure.
There are a couple slots in October where it says Training Captain (TCA) and the person’s name listed with NHFO, which I’m assuming means “New-Hire FO.” I guess anything is subject to change. This is from searching “A220” in Mint. Its really not that surprising to me though. It’s about 125% growth in bodies needed for that fleet by the end of 2022. The pilots filling in those vacancies will predominately be based in BOS and the A320 already pays more and doesn’t have the “bare bones” pairing set the A220 has for now. So NH’s will fill in a handful of spots uncovered. We shall see…. |

I think TCA/TFO is transition CA/FO (ie same seat new plane). UCA is upgrade CA (from right seat same plane). NHFO is correct and then there are also NHFI, which are newhire flight instructors (non seniority list), NHIP (new hire seniority list instructor pilots).

CBA: An Instructor Pilot shall be on the JetBlue Master Seniority List . A minimum of 75% of the total JetBlue Instructors shall be an Instructor Pilot or a JetBlue Pilot Retiree. Adjunct Instructor Pilots will not be included in this calculation. so…75% of the total instructors have to be Instructor Pilots or retirees. But not all instructors have to be instructor “pilots” (ie the difference between being on the SL, or not). All new instructor “pilots” get on the SL right away. When I voted on the CBA, I thought that meant all new instructors period were required to be on the list. Semantics…but a big difference in meaning. |
The vacancy says “Flight Instructor Simulator Instructor”
So I guess that means you are non-seniority list. Definitely a question to ask if given the opportunity. That would make a big difference. If you are non-seniority list do you still get an opportunity to fly the line eventually? |

Doesn’t the union get a copy of the results to review before publication? Would love to at least hear something. 3 weeks after closing is unnecessarily long to wait IMO.

ALPA might have a copy, but releasing that information goes against the CBA without tying that information with the training dates. Everyone knows if they post the awards immediately and wait on the training dates later pilots would complain that the training dates are taking too long! That’s what pilots do best :D |

it’s on a need to know basis. Example. If you got awarded something in the supplemental bid and decided that it wasn’t what you wanted and awarded something different they let you know you won’t be going to training.
