In ORD a few months ago, and this...
AA Ramp: "JetBlue 123, are you able to push deep to allow a Spirit aircraft to push?"
Silence
AA Ramp: "Well ok. Spirit 321 hold your push."
Really?

I mean, would it kill them to say hello in the terminals?, lol. I always wave and say hello and they just ignore me, it's like I'm talking to my wife 
(I'm over sensative, I know)
I also think JB following us everywhere is cute, imitation is the most sincere form of flattery. Imagine if they start charging for carry-ons........wait a second, lol

You know what, it's weird, but I get the same thing. I'm the friendliest guy in the world, my Mom even says so, but I say hi to JetBlue and Virgin America guys all the time. Nothing, nada, usually they just turn around or look the other way.
Saw a JetBlue guy in the elevator the other day:
Me, "Hey man, how's it going, where you off to?"
Him: <grunt>
Not sure where grunt is, but doesn't sound like a place I want to hang out at.

There are jerks at every airline, heck I have yet to have a Delta pilot say hi to me( real shocker)
I have never heard any pilot here talk bad about your group and if anything they love the fact that you guys told mgmt to pound sand and walked the line.
Now we do have differences in the "product" and there is room for both but many of you guys act like ulcc is the only way to go.
Yeah your airline is the love of Wall st as once jetBlue was so enjoy it because it won't always be that way. But I really think you are making to much out of this and calling us Jetblew does not help.

I'm not that smart so can someone explain to me how fuel this cheap is actually hurting us? I keep reading that the low fuel allows the legacy airlines to be more competitive on price & and how there is "compression" on later fare bookings.
If fuel is low, how is that not benefiting us as well?

I guess it helps us if we lower or ticket prices too, but I think BB has said that he didn't want to get into a price war either, so maybe our fares are staying pretty much the same, while everybody else drops.
