Per JetBlue’s current Scope section, we can not combine operations until we have voted in a JCBA. In other words, for the first (and last) time in most of our careers, the company needs a new CBA more than we do.

Every week that the companies are forced to maintain separate operations is millions of dollars of lost profits. Keep this in mind when reaching out to your reps and negotiating committee. Our two pilot groups will never have this kind of bargaining leverage again.

next to a strike, this is the most leverage we will ever have.

He works at a company that conducted interstate commerce prior to deregulation? Unless B6 merges with a big 3 carrier or AS or HA and ends up on their operating certificate, it won’t ever be a “legacy,” which only denotes a carrier that fits that one singular definition.

Denying that he can identify as working for a legacy is hate speech and a good way to get yourself removed from the platform. Legacy is a spectrum, but not one that has room for toxicity and intolerance.

Here at the new Jet Blue, we welcome legacy persons of companies with limited pre-degregulation interstate commerce.

Except… with a strike, the paychecks stop.

When you’re squeezing management for an industry-leading JCBA, the paychecks keep rolling in!

Lesson 2 on JB speak: JetBlue is one word. Normally the J and B are capitalized within a single word.

With the JetBlue purchase what happens to the planned reduction of DTW DFW and ORD

Wow. Ted comes off as a beaten man. Robyn disagrees right off the bat with him about "twists and turns." On a follow up question, Ted deflects right to Robyn for answering. Ted not doing so well without the teleprompter with the "umms." Overall, another terrible performance by our CEO.
