B6 + Eagle = SJU?
 

Any rumors about a tie up... B6 is all abuzz about Eagle doing B6's flying off the rock.


Discuss.....

Ya code sharing, B6 pax connecting on ATR's...

No, Eagle/Executive will not merge with B6.

I personally think Eagle needs a new fleet of turboprops if Jetblue is even going to consider placing their code on the Eagle flights.

But I have heard that rumor from a JB A320 CA when I was jumpseating to JFK about 6 months ago.

There should be more info on the 8th of Feb.

chief pilot in MIA said the ATR was adding 700 hours/month starting in april I believe.

Yes, adding that time across the 3 bases, and another 400 hrs in May. Most likely a shuffling of the deck chairs as EMBs do flying for parked CRJs (lack of staffing) and the ATRs fill-in for those EMBs on their normal flying.

JMO.

comical! More flights are being canceled due staffing for all fleets :D espcially in JFK as I sit here waiting for captain open to show up for my overnight!

are they still shrinking SJU?

I dont think so, our most recent bid had some backfilling of Captains into SJU and the newhire class that starts Feb 14th will have some SJU slots as well.

Company sent out an email saying the ATR flying system wide will be increasing from the original plan starting in April and then another small bump in May.
