It’s time for us to get something of substance in return.

No no no there is no extra flying well except that extra flying.

This stuff gets so old. I know things are changing all the time and it’s definitely a good sign but can they ever just tell the truth. I’m willing to bet someone with the initials AB would be to blame here but that’s just a guess.

i doubt we get anything out of the grievance just a hey don’t do that again.

Nothing really matters for the sake of Jetblue until NYC comes out of lockdown, our biggest domicile by a wide margin. You can tell me that your phone is blowing up with June Flica alerts or your commute flight was filled to the cap or the TSA numbers hit 300K, it doesn’t matter right now.

I agree.
And even though TSA numbers are trending upward, they still haven’t even hit 10% of last year. We have a lonnng way to go. Still planning on hitting the street on 10/1.

Yes to this. After October 1st reality will hit us all. IMHO

I think we all know it’s coming. Still gonna be a shock to the system when we get the actual letter. At this point, I just hope we have a solid company to come back to.

Wish we could get some numbers of what they’re thinking for the next 18 months. Delta said they need to be 2,500-3,500 lighter around sometime in 2021. Really the only thing I’ve gathered is they are modeling a L shaped recovery and that recovery happening sometime late 2021.

DL has a very different network and their modeling will be drastically different than a carrier like B6. It is generally thought that widebody intl and domestic business will be the two segments that lag in the recovery vs leisure and VFR on the front end of the recovery. A carrier like B6 is better positioned to capitalize on leisure/VFR.

We will certainly see some pain with losing business travel in BOS, but our recovery trajectory will look very different from DL’s.

Of course.... but they can still share some modeling/numbers with us based on that logic.

Agree. I’m sure they will share that on August 3rd 🤣

Have any of the LCC/ULCC crowd shared numbers yet? I don’t recall hearing much from the homies elsewhere, other than some utterly speculative shwags from Alaska. Being right about 20% off the bottom I’m as anxious to hear as anyone. I’d expect (maybe over-optimistically) some amplifying information as June numbers reveal themselves, but I’ve given up on any real transparency anymore. If and when the notice hits my mailbox I’ll pretend to be surprised. Hope you’re all sitting LCR in a state of blissful ignorance, just as I am.
