I don't think JB has any intention of shrinking, or that 2+2=3.

They hope a larger airline with more bases, more pay (JCBA) and a large order book will attract and RETAIN enough pilots to continue rapid growth, and that a larger more national footprint will help them better compete with the big 4.

I will take option 4, for $500, Alex.

I probably would like Ted as a person over Ben and Bob, but I am not looking for a beer buddy.

y’all had a sju base?

The issue with the F9 merger is that they’re going to struggle to retain. JBs CEO has already come out and said pilot pay scales need to increase to compete.

It’ll be a fight, tooth and nail, to get anything accomplished with F9.

Don't expect that JB will just hand out money.

And yet we have pilots saying "F the ALPA lanyard." Cracks in unity is like a drug for people like Franke. Cant believe we have morons who cant realize the basic of basics.
