Impossible to have industry leading scope unless someone really believes it’s better than SW’s.

It's what they said in the aip. Unless I'm mistaken

The AIP bulletpoints do not say industry leading scope anywhere. Just says “No jetblue express. Limitations on codeshares and JVs. Limitations on C91 flying.”

We will see what it actually says if we ever get a TA, but it won’t be SWA level I don’t think.

Industry leading pairing construction rules, aside from that it says no jetblue express. That’s it...just fyi this AIP is about to go sideways. We have been played and lost. JB management 1, pilots 0. Nothing will be finalized by Aug. So, let’s keep bailing the company out for your own personal monetary gain.

You need to ask Hyper, they gave him all the really good top-secret stuff.

They only give me the regular stuff that leaves me with the same questions as you...

If this happens it's time to put out a strike vote immediately or a vote of no confidence in the mec/nc. I'd prefer the first option.

For people wondering what it’s like at BlewJet...

There’s a 4-day sitting in open time for JFK FO 320. On day 4, transcon FLL-LAX, then deadhead to JFK. 5:22 block out there, then 5:33 of middle seat torture deadheading back... and even if a mint seat is open, you’re not allowed to sit in it.

Did you know that “Caring” is our #2 core value?

Yeah, so, bad example.

That's almost 11:00 of credit for one day of work, and if you're a commuter you can self yourself at the end. I'd be at my house by around 4:00 p.m., instead of midnight when I commute home from JFK.

Wish I could make that one work.

Don't forget to don the blue gloves on your way out as well....

I'll be looking in the "contract" to see if it has prohibitions against unpaid ancilliary, non-CFR mandated pilot duties.

My point was more or less directed at having to sit in the back for 5.5hrs after flying for 5hrs (likely in the middle seat). Regardless of how much you’d credit that day, we still shouldn’t be treated that way. And what about the guys that live near JFK that have to endure that deadhead home... they’d be better off selfing and listing themselves on Delta or AA and likely get a business class seat Home to the same airport... but yes, I understand your point
