That is the ONLY reason to startup an airline. The golden parachute lives on.

Will the buyer be UAL?????
UAL does operate A320's, UAL pulled all most all out of JFK & FLL, and yesterday UAL did something in history that they have NEVER EVER DONE.......Here's a copy of the memo that pertains to Flight Attendant Jump Seat Agreement!!!!!
Let the rumors begin!!!!
June 28, 2007
We are testing a cabin seat reciprocity agreement with JetBlue beginning July 1. Through this agreement, United flight attendants are eligible to commute on JetBlue at no cost when cabin seats are available. Accommodation on JetBlue in open cabin seats will be on a first-come, first-served basis.
In return, JetBlue's flight attendants will be eligible to travel at no charge in open economy cabin seats on United's North American mainline flights (50 states) beginning in November.
As you know, JetBlue's route network is particularly strong on the East Coast and especially in Florida . So this test will be especially important to the approximately 1,000 Flight Attendants who live in Florida , over 60 percent of whom commute to a domicile on the East Coast.

Were one of the few that let OAL FA's jumpseat. We let UAL's FA's jumpseat already so I guess they are just starting to return the favor.

Well I am back form a five week of vacation/relaxation and entertaining a few Hosties. Overall I'd say it gave me a much more clear perspective on things and the ability to reflect on them with a clear mind.
Right now I am ROTFLMAO and loving it.
Sure, I was a big proponent of JetBlue forming a union. Now I'm not so sure.
I think the best medicine for the blue shirt wearing panty-waist is to get a real dose of thier own industry wrecking medicine when they are bought out and forced to merge senority non-union style.
After watching the train wrecks of ASTAR/ABEX, AA/TWA and USAir/America West it will be really entertaing to watch them be "stapled" to the end of a Union senority list (although I doubt they are allowed the courtesy of the staple).
So anyway on to a more important question: During my vacation I decided to upgrade my current hot tub using my last contract signing bonus monies. Can anyone recommend on that is good at soaking, relaxation, massage, or hydrotherapy?
