Don’t expect a new contract anytime soon. The good news is the Spirit side of B6 will grow as much as management can let it and the legacy JB side not so much. |

B6's pilot contract says any merger must have a CBA in 6 months or they pay B6 pilots substantial penalties. The Merger language says they have to have a merger close by December or it pays penalties to the NK shareholders. But yeah, I'm sure B6 management will drag it out to save a few pennies on spirit pilots. |

JetBlue CBA 1.E.2
A single collective bargaining agreement will be negotiated by the pilot groups and the Companies subject to the transaction or their Successor. While such negotiations are ongoing and until a Joint Collective Bargaining Agreement is ratified the status quo as specified in the agree- ment(s) of the impacted pilot group(s) will apply. Each pre-merger carrier shall keep separate flight operations of the carriers and will not transfer or interchange pilots or aircraft between the carriers unless otherwise negotiated and agreed to by the Association, and shall ensure that all Company aircraft on hand or on order at the time of the transaction are operated only by JetBlue Pilots. This will not prohibit the carrier from obtaining a single operating certificate. |

Anybody know if the NK pilots on the Bus will still be on the bus once the merger happens? Seems like it wouldn't make sense to send a bunch of bus pilots back to get typed/trained on a different aircraft. I know the bus pays the highest at JB
