You shouldn't have any problems holding JFK

Are there any LGB vacancies remaining? Still in Phase 2, but hoping to make it through and luck into one of those...

It doesn't take a crystal ball to know that an applicant and his family would be better served at the big 3, all it takes is a calculator.

ALPA is on the property

I fly 11 days a month.

I have vacation over the summer.

I allow my seniority work for me rather than bidding junior Captain seat.

I have had several pay raises since I have been here.

I sell back Vacation

ALPA is on the property and doing a good job IMHO.

It has gotten better many from my new hire class are Captains!

We wait for our stellar CBA!

Good for you. None of what you said applies to a new hire.

Youre wasting good logic on a B6 mouthpiece. HB is a "me first" type.

It's sad that you think that...I have served and helped this ALPA group and JetBlue pilots selflessly. If you knew me you would not say that. It is easy to launch bombs on the computer. It's harder to volunteer and help pilots on your days off........

Didn't say that. Come on now. I'm saying it's cyclical. Those who are 35 or younger haven't seen the pain of the down times. Don't over think it fellas! I'm just sayin. Someday the music's going to stop again.
