Freightpusher,
Good info. Just curious if they have mentioned how many have been hired total this year? I remember being told 250 was the target at my feb interview. I assume this 200 is in addition to the 250? Good times! Hoping for the Embraer.

Thanks for compiling all of this! Looks like even getting into class this summer, there will be a decent amount of newhires continuing behind.

Thanks Freightpusher, that keeps my spirits up. Wish they could give folks a ballpark figure for when the class that they would most likely be in. Can't understand why its seems to be a secret? I wouldn't hold them to it; but there have been a lot of opportunities that I have passed up to be available for any JB short-calls for class, but I guess in this litigious world we live someone might. Just hope the economy remains robust for the foreseeable future to maintain growth in the airlines gig. Don't worry everyone, once I get on-board things will come crashing down................seems to be the trend in my case at least.

For all you guys on property, or about to go on property, what's the starting pay like for FO's? I was reading the JetBlue PCRB in the download section of this website, and it shows that pay for new FO's was reduced to $40/hour from $47/hour base pay. Is this true and that APC needs to update the Jetblue page? Thanks.

As of May 17 2011 it is $47.52/hr for 1st yr pay.

$2500/mo while in initial training, then you go to 70hrs flight pay per month when you finish your sim check ride. After IOE youll start reserve pay which is 75hrs per month.
