related question. Do new hires also stay at that JetBlue hotel? Or nearby? I got to tour the facilities years back and it looked really cool.

New hires stay at the lodge. In my opinion it’s way more convenient than when you come back for transition or upgrade which is at a nearby hotel. The lodge is well taken care of and the food is decent and cheap. Nice gym, nice pool, basketball court, walking trail, easy walk to class/sims. I prefer it to the local hotels which are understaffed.

Awesome thanks. The whole facility left a good impression on me back in 2015 when I got to visit. I think my university ended up not participating in the gateway program thing, but I’m keeping a look out for the next app window.

The Lodge is awesome! The staff does an amazing job cleaning , rooms are very nice, large showers. Food is pretty good as well. Way better than a hotel and much more convenient!

If you get the E190, you may also spend most of your training after Indoc and systems in Dallas. Besides nearly a month off, my split was 11 nights in Orlando and 32 nights in Dallas.

Indoc is basically Wed/Thurs/Mon/Tues, with 4 days allocated for systems CBTs in there, which end on that Friday. So Indoc is like 1.5 weeks, but really only 4 days of classes. Systems CBTs are 4 days, then 4 days of systems FTDs, then 6 procedures lessons in the FTDs, then 5 maneuvers sims followed by the MV (maneuvers checkride), an international ground school day and international sim, 3 line oriented sims, and then a line oriented evaluation (actual checkride). So that’s 10 FTDs and 11 sims, I think.

They are broken up, sometimes 4 days on 1-2 off, sometimes more breaks, sometimes less.

Everything BeatNavy said is correct. However, Indoc is really self-taught. You’ll be in “class” Thurs, Fri, Mon, and Tues but they’re ancillary classes like security awareness and emergency equipment. The true FOM-related Indoc stuff will be learned in your room on your iPad. There’s a 90 question quiz you have to complete before Tuesday. JetBlue gives you EVERYTHING along the way. Training is very straightforward.

CASS and KCM should be available by the end of Indoc. It’s possible to non-rev home for the weekend but the vast majority just spend the weekend at the lodge studying and hanging out. Most classes have the option of bidding for 1-3 week breaks after Indoc before starting systems. You’ll be positive spaced home for that (likely MCO-JFK-LAX)
