Those are ZedFares, and MyIdtravel is the only place we have to book them. The travel/benefits tab of hellojetblue has a list of all our Zed agreements and whom is eligible for each one. I don't know, but suspect, that many of the international carriers may not extend benefits to your registered companion.

Have you guys noticed we got much fewer inquiries in here about the hiring window, compared to the last couple of years?
I wonder if that has something to do with the applicant being more informed, the application having less glitches than used to have or actually a general decline in interest for JetBlue after the new UAL pay rates and overhaul hiring from the Big 3.
I am curious to see the numbers after they close the window.

Another question, anyone noticed the RSV availability in Feb and Mar have much less FOs per day than used to be? Is this system wise?
What's going on?

Not sure. A lot of us have applied in several windows, so we kind of have the process down cold. Most of the information requested on the application my computer auto-fills from previous hiring cycles, which makes it pretty easy. I think there's still a high level of interest from potential applicants.

I agree. At least from the regional world, we are all trying to leave as quickly as possible for anywhere (for the most part).

I think many, like my self, have applied to many windows with no success. We have the process down. It is certainly discouraging seeing less qualified people than myself getting the interview. I'm not sure if I will continue to apply. At this point, I may hold out for one of the legacies. The longer it takes, the less likely I am willing to go for JB and the job would require a commute

At least the application has been updated and is a little more user friendly than in years past. It takes a little longer though.

So is someone I've been with for 4 years, living with me, sharing the bills, considered a domestic partner?
