I think that management believes as you do, which is why I expect a substandard TA. Unlike you I feel like most guys have had it and it'll go down in flames. Informational picketing, strike vote and probable strike before we get what we deserve. There are blue juicers, but there aren't as many as people think.
I partially agree with this.
The only thing I think is different is that our NC and MEC/LEC will never let a substandard TA even get to us.
They know what we're worth across the board from pay/benefits to work rules, etc.
So does the company.
I'm confident we'll get a top-rate TA to vote on the first time. It may take arm twisting.....mediation......info picketing, etc....but I'm comfortable in the end we'll be happy with the outcome.

Not about what we lose now- its about JB using this raise as a way to stall the negotiations later when the NMB is involved. Jetblue will look like a more generous company than they actually are.
Vote yes- enjoy the 500/month- just be aware of the playbook and get ready for more shenanigans. Its a part of CBA negotiations.

We all look to DAL as an example of effective labor relations (early contract agreements specifically), but nothing I've seen yet suggests that B6 management is shooting for the high road rather than the Spirit model.
Really, I don't think we know exactly what we're dealing with here until this thing comes out.

The NMB leans management pretty much in all cases of which I am aware.

I hope youre right- but it has to be considered that JB will use this as an asset against a speedy TA. Why wouldnt they?

Spirit pilots absolutely did. Their successful strike vote made that a company worth considering (at the time).
