I’m just not sure the purpose of the email. I have read it like 2 more times trying to find the secret code in it. Don’t see it.

yah PSP was mentioned so maybe it’s about that. But based on what happened when Nancy said to not furlough because money was on its way in October. I have no faith that they will have any plan. Good thing they found a way to keep the government open for another week to try to “work” on another deal. Is there any truth to the AA deal? Maybe it’s about that?

Nothing on the AA-B6 codeshare other than view from the wing article saying it's been approved by DOT, not sure that's a good source.

That being said, probably very little for folks to be concerned about in the e-mail. Purely speculation, but if another $17B in stimulus goes to the airline industry, B6's portion should hold JetBlue over more than enough until vaccine recovery without any furloughs. No stimulus, then there may be cause for concern in the name of "cost cutting" to reduce cash burn. IMHO

Safe to assume that we are currently 500 pilots over staffed?

Looks like just over 400 fat for the 6/1 target.

How dare you not agree 100%. You will be assimilated.

Agree with you and to be fair to the source, he had told me that a couple of days before the Union email came out, so I think there is some validity to it.

As the email that just went out, the Company is trying to finalize their financials for 2021 and cut costs. It’s natural they want to talk and renegotiate something with our Union. It would’ve been nice if the email was a little more specific though, but I feel they just wanted to be transparent and let us know the Company wants something from us.

Let’s not fool ourselves, demand is still low and it will take time for it to come back. Hard to say how much time, but any money it comes our way from the Government will help in avoiding Furloughs. At some point things will be back to where they were, I’m sure.

I am on the same boat and agree with you all regarding Furloughs. It sucks but that’s how you play this game. Don’t lower the value of our profession is the number 1 Rule in my book.

BlueNote that just came out says no furloughs for non-union employees through 9/30.
