Do not panic.
Last time I checked, JetBlue does not compete with FDX or UPS.
Enjoy all that money, since you won't live that long, flying those night schedules...

If all these numbers confuse all you JetBlue-haters, Union-lovers, Velocipedes and other retards:

It means profit sharing for us JetBlue Crewmembers!
Part of our non-union contract.

Profit sharing is great, but the problem is that it is money that comes right to you. If pilot spending habits hold true, the likely result is that this small amount gets spent real quick.

My union carrier also has profit sharing, but more importantly, has a defined contribution plan. This was established after our A-plan died an expected fiery death last year. In little more than a year, the company has deposited about 27K into my account. How does that compare to your profit sharing check? I doubt seriously that this plan would have been established had we not been part of ALPA. While I don't plan on sending roses to them on the 14th, I appreciate the work they do on my behalf.

I, along with most, I'm sure, don't actually hate JetBlue. What does irritate many however is the way cities and state governments fall all over themselves to get an op like JB into their city while at the same time sticking it to the legacy carriers. Make no mistake, airline regulation is alive and well at a local level.
