You work for the airline with the worst health benefits in the industry. Your pay is now below average too. All this translates to a 28% cost advantage over our competitors. You and your ilk just can't give enough.

Dont know what your health insurance is like at jb, but ours got more expensive this year too. There were several options, but mine is:
$67.50 per pay period (for family coverage)
$5500 deductible
$500 company contribution
Out of pocket max is $10,000
That's for a corporate pilot for a Fortune 500 company.

The PVC has spelled it out for you but you still don't seem to have the reading comprehension skills necessary to understand the gravity of our situation.

Well, I thought I did pretty good last year making 130K as a 320 FO. But, after reading your post, I guess I'm headed towards FINANCIAL RUIN! Aw dang, gonna have to file bankruptcy now. OH NOOOOOOO!!!
Meanwhile, JetBlue continues to grow......but it's a HOPELESS cause....
