The MCO turn is scheduled to finish inside the footprint of your originally schedule RSW turn. The MCO then being delayed outside your footprint I don't think triggers EPS pay. Just JRA.

Don't take no for an answer. Until you've heard it at least 5-10 times.
FSM c.15 it's sort of explained.

In essence from a scheduling perspective the company took one leg and broke it into two with a new destination. Is this an emergency assignment? I get it if it's a divert. This was a known change from the planning phase.

I know Im a broken record but how tf do they staff any decent work/reserve rules anyway? They cant, so we'll be voting on a contract that cant be 100% implemented for at least 6 months.
We are not close guys.
Update your logbooks/apps and make sure you still fit into your interview suits

While we are on the topic, could anyone just summarize what the latest news from ALPA is regarding negotiations to someone on the outside (cautiously) looking in. Currently in the pool, looking for an exit strategy out of my scumbag ACMI job. I'm local to JFK so B6 looked like a decent opportunity to get back on a somewhat normal schedule. I'm just curious what the current negotiation climate is. Based on the tone of these past few months worth of posts, I'm assuming the water's getting a little muddy? Is progress already at a standstill? From what I'm reading, and hearing from friends at Blue, there seems to be conflicting thoughts regarding when/if a CBA will happen.

It sheds a bad light on all of us, it's a public profile and it's all JetBlue and all in the cockpit! Guess it's all worth it if ym someone comments with that emoji with hearts in its eyes, or someone telling you I hope you have a great day Captain. Puke.
