Probably 60/40 split in favor of E190 slots. Most A320 slots will be for JFK, E190 slots will be split evenly JFK/BOS. A320 tends to go more senior.

That's what it has been, but there are currently the vacancy ratio is heavy for the bus. Any possibility that the new hire classes will reflect this?

True, I wouldn't be surprised if things started to go heavier towards the bus. It will be interesting to watch.

Thanks. Are they looking to have all those open slots filled by the next bid?

For those of us on the outside looking in, does the sum of the F/O openings equal the number of people who will need to be hired or is it more complicated than that?

It is more complicated than that. All training for this bid is supposed to be completed by Nov 2014, but doesn't necessarily mean we will hire to fill all vacancies by Nov 2014. Last word from above said another 100 pilots for this year.

Projected jetblue class dates for 2014:
4/30, 5/14, 5/28, 6/18, 7/16, 8/27, 9/10, 9/24, 10/15, 10/29, 11/12
