Hello guys!
I live in Los Angeles and I am stuck commuting across the continent for the sake of holding a line. I am thinking about applying to JetBlue but I need some info here.
How long does it take to hold LAX?
What are the chances of getting the 320 as a newhire?(I am typed and don’t feel like getting typed in the embraer if it’s going extinct pretty soon)
What do you Jetblue guys think about the future of the company (upgrade,growth,etc..)?
Last but not least. What are jetblue’s hiring plans for 2019 and when shall I get expect the window to open?
Your help is greatly appreciated

LAX? Quite a while considering we don't have a base in LAX, just LGB

320 as a new hire? I wouldn't count on it 100%, but if you're senior in your class, possible. A lot of current 190 drivers hitting their seat lock want the raise so that may kill it for you depending on what they want for the particular class.

Future of the company? Got a coin to flip?

Hiring? They said 400 I think but numbers for everything are pretty inflated here...including on time performance and and speak up survey participation.

I heard some senior guys in class are bidding 190 to get better QOL. Any truth to this?

Definitely. Very short reserve time on the 190. Slow movement on the Bus.

Think of B6 as a "safety school"
And if the West coast is a priority, forget about Blue and concentrate on the majors. Good luck to ya.
