As long as you live within 2 hours drive "under normal traffic", JB is good with that. If they call you at peak rush hour and you can't make it in two hours, you're good, not your fault.
JB is a NYC based airline, they understand, just call and say you're stuck in traffic.
I live in NJ, at 1:15 drive without traffic plus 30 mins to get from Long term parking to the terminal. Never had a problem.
(if they want you to get there" as soon as possible" they'll approve short term parking expense but never agree to anything less than 2 hour commute)

If you've been assigned a 0700. Your normal driving conditions put you right at 2:00 hours, but it's rush hour, you might have some explaining to do if you continually miss your showtime during rush hour.
mAAybe we can shift to the way AA does things for reserve. I think their terminology is "good faith effort". In my mind that includes a stop at Dunkin, eat my breakfast, and greet Mint customers in the lounge

I know it's splitting hairs, but " under normal traffic" is not the terminology JB uses, it's "unexpected circumstances".

I know you're being sarcastic because we would never create a Mint lounge! Everyone's equal at JetBlue!

Help me remember- under the 8% raise we negated any form of profit sharing correct? Or was an increased 401K contribution included? It's all hazy now... I blame ATC.

The new profit sharing model shares 15% of pre-tax profits to a dual trigger model:
If JetBlue’s pre-tax margin is 18% or lower, we share in 10% of pre-tax profit.
If JetBlue’s pre-tax margin is higher than 18%, we share in 10% of pre-tax profit up to an 18% pre-tax margin
PLUS
20% of any pre-tax profit above an 18% pre-tax margin

The profit sharing model was going to change either way, we only voted on the 8% raise.

Somehow I see the company reporting 17.9%
