I'll report you decide.

Before: Newhire pay 2500/month. Lodged in one of several extended-stay properties with kitchens in every room, free breakfast, occasional free dinner/snacks/drinks in the evening. Walkable to multiple restaurants, a park, etc.

After: Newhire pay 2000/month. No refrigerator in room and no personal food/beverage except in "common" areas. Daily stipend towards food, use it or lose it daily. Walkable to the schoolhouse and nowhere else. Significant others/children not allowed past the lobby area. You can drink at a company-owned bar if you so choose...

At least we're not making new hires get their own rooms, yet.

Been on prob for about 2.5 years, still have not gotten an email about passing phase II , so for those waiting i think it's safe to say "no news"is "good news."

New hire here. Trying to update my logbook.

Do I use crewtrac to get the times? If so, it is not displaying it on my iPad (in Chrome or safari).

Help.

Ahh, got you. And the bonus is gone too right? Guess all that glitters ain't gold.

I don't think that other guy stayed at the lodge. I really enjoyed it way more than I thought I would. the food was incredible. the convenience of it being right next to the training center is worth a huge amount, for me. so incredibly easy to walk next door anytime, day or night, to run through flows on the paper tiger or whatever. no waiting for vans, no paying for food, nice new property with new rooms.

I was dreading it, but I ended up loving it. I don't think anyone in my class disliked it immensely. there might have been a guy or two who would have preferred something else, but everyone raved about the food.

also, the people that work at the lodge are the nicest people I have ever encountered at a hotel. every single person has obviously been handpicked for a great customer service attitude. they are not jetblue employees. they sure make you feel at home.

I was very glad I stayed there and I will certainly stay there again for recurrent. I am already missing the food.

I guess I was just kinda hoping there was at least one airline that really gets it. Sure there can be improvements but let me tell you, I have friends at all the big three and aside from the paycheck, other than the big D, none of the seem to like who they work for or enjoy going to work. Compare that to my blue buddies, they all love it. I don't know. Grass is always greener. But I'm on the outside looking in.

Totally second this.

I was there for 5.5 weeks and truly had an amazing stay. 2 minute walk for a 5:00 AM sim. If you are desperate to get off property you can take a $4.00 uber to Semoran and walk around to your hearts content.

Food is fantastic and the bar is great.

Did you try blue connect with Chrome? I honestly don't bother with CrewTrac unless I'm on a windows device (at the crew lounge, for example). Have had limited success on iOS devices.

NoDeskJob

Tried it via blue connect and chrome.

So crew trac is where I get the times? Just use a PC?

aewanabe

Yes. I believe the tab is called crew time report. Disclaimer; it's been quite awhile since I used it. PC definitely works best though.
