approx time for a new hire to get MCO? at this time not commuting is more important than E190/195 vs A320/321
If I'm lucky enough to be offered a position I just had, like many others, a serious complication arise with AA's announcement of huge retention bonuses for us wholly owned guys. I believe JetBlue is a great place to be however I cannot ignore what my compensation will be at the end of the day. That said though,I believe the culture and crewmembers at JetBlue will make up for the AA induced headaches that come with that additional compensation and that definitely counts for something !
I appreciate any help and or thoughts on the matter
Pay clock starts day 1 of training (despite being on training pay until done with training). Start date anniversary = year 2 pay, etc.
not sure these days. Things are in flux with this bid that’s about to come out that will likely have massive movement. Guessing 1 year or so to hold MCO E190 (no 195s). Few years to hold Airbus FO MCO.
Not sure what B6 has that AA doesn’t (or Vice versa) culture or crew wise. My friends at AA seem happy there. B6 is not all unicorns and rainbows. Don’t come to B6 for the culture or crew. You might be disappointed. Come for the job, the pay, maybe a base if the difference is a commute vs drive, maybe the ability to instruct in MCO (which you could do year 1 if you applied for a newhire instructor job). Year 1 you’ll make about 80-90k. Year 2 on the E190 prob 115+, more if you hustle. Year 3 on the 190 150k isn’t out of the question, especially now with as much premium as there’s been. So, do the math based on that. Good luck.
