The forums are not a representation of the majority. They are in an echo chamber, and think they are. But they aren't. Most people are rational, and want a good CBA, but aren't super negative.

I look forward to you getting back on the line and joining reality.

I'm not sure why you care what my opinion is.

I didn't at ASA and I don't here. You keep saying nobody in the school house or on the line complains to you. That will change once you relinquish your instructor title and Jetblue stops caring about you too.

Well, some comfort inn and suites are nice. Never came across a nice laquinta. I get your point though.

I'm staying at a Fairfield Inn. In LAX. It's the nicest Fairfield I've seen, but still...

If you're looking at advancing your career, Jetblue is an excellent stepping stone at very worst. It's also a good company with better earnings potential and work rules than your regional, at very worst.

These forums have smatterings of Truth and smatterings of complete negative b.s. Ditch the regional job while the job market is hot and decide for yourself what's good and what isn't.

Excellent point. Also consider that no one knows what the future holds, and regional flying is especially volatile. If the music stops tomorrow would you want to be at a regional or at a place where the name on your check matches the planes? In 3-4 years at JetBlue you'll make more than a topped out regional CA.
