JetBlue CBA wish list
 
So, what's on the wish list for the CBA?

Whatever it is, it wouldn't be a great idea for management to know what we prioritize over other items. I'm sure there will be official ALPA polls sent to the pilots and the results will be used by the negotiating committee.

That makes sense.

Snowman Tie Sunday!

Pilots get ALPA BLUE AND WHITE gloves to show solidarity when cleaning the jets on turns.

Two Percent Taco Tuesday in all crew rooms.

Its a no cost item even. Company should have no problem giving it to us.

All jetblue airplanes flown by jetblue pilots and bind it to any holding company.

Everything is a cost item.

Rule #1: If management knows you want it, they will want something for it.

You guys just voted in a union after the company spent years and millions of dollars trying to prevent you. They are ****ed im sure, and they will be following rule #1 above.

Best of luck to you guys, hope you do get everything you guys want...

Better get language to limit the company to the current 500 code shares while you're at it.

You mean management owns and controls everything?

If so, what does that make pilots/labor?

Seriously with the code shares. Hawaiian is our best-est buddy code share and they sell tickets on Virgin A, on the same competitive route from Cali, into our own largest domicile. Not right.

I agree, but it's far from a "no cost item." If jetBlue pilots fly it, it'll cost the company more than if they just tossed their code on another carrier that had their people fly it. I imagine they, like just about every other airline in history, will fight tooth and nail on scope. The thing to remember is once the cat's out of the bag, it's hard to get it back in. Just look at Delta and the 76 seat flying. Those guys back in the 90s would think you were nuts if you told them an RJ would be flying almost all of their CVG routes. Those were mainline MD-88s at the time. Northwest had the same issues outta DTW with DC-9s. Suddenly, those all became CRJ-200s. Good luck getting that flying back at mainline now. So, we've absolutely got to draw a line in the sand here and now, but I don't expect the company to just give it to us.

What REALLY gets me is Azul starting Brazil-US routes. THAT is a market we shoulda/coulda gotten in to first and codeshared with THEM to connect intra-Brazil routes. Dollars to donuts it's gonna go the other way now.

As for management knowing what we want, they already do. Unless no one listened at ALL during the calls on the PEA and during the union drive.
