When did he say this because it's 180 out from everything that's been said recently.

That last pocket session JW seemed a lot more wishy washy than I would have imagined based on the rumors.

Within the past week is what I was told. I’m not surprised though. Jetblue hasn’t quite figured out how much support FLL is giving them according to the last management pocket session.

I wouldn't say that's how it sounded. It seems they want to but has to balance the gates with other airlines requests too, and not just give JB all the gates. People love to sue.

PVBM is now showing FLL220 CA/FO as an option. Rumor is around 50 crews.

A lot of blogs seem to think JB is gate squatting and will get thrown out of NK gates when another airline will pay more.

Probably largely accurate.

An airline can’t gate squat. BCAD owns those gates and we are in negotiations with BCAD as we speak. BCAD also wanted 14 million for a lounge that we want in T3. Management turned that offer down. The lounge would be located in proximity to bokampers restaurant. Bokampers would be reduced in size by half and additional square footage for the lounge would be taken from the existing crew room. So additional gate space and a lounge are all in negations currently with BCAD. From what I understand BCAD likes blue’s expansion plans and the agreement will be finalized soon.
