JetBlue Latest and Greatest
Once guys hit the 3 year mark they are pretty much set.
We do have some leaving after that point(even captains with 7-10 years in) but once they hit year 3 they become much more likely to stay.
The company has been using where you live as a huge determinant to evaluate your flight risk as well.

True but people, especially with family can only start over so many times. You will only know if you made the right decisions in your career when you retire and look back.

I think if you live in a JB base, you can have a very nice career, especially if you've been here for quite some time. I am worried about what will happen if we stop taking new airplanes and stop growing, things will start to stagnate. And I'm not going to lie, I am worried about this pilot group and its unity.

Agreed to a certain point. Obviously everyones situation is different. Age, family, where you live, seniority, etc all play a factor. I'm able and giving myself a couple more years before JetBlue will put on the golden handcuffs and keeps me here, but I'm keeping my options open for now.

When we get out TA it will speak volumes one way or another.
Fly safe, fly SOP.

Looks like we now have a "retro" A320 that came in from GUS.
