Its possible but they'd have to offer about 40k bonus to every pilot just to break even with the regionals at $95/hr with no training contract.

True. But I bet that’s cheaper than 400 plus million over two years.
If they hired 1400 next year that would be about 55mil. at 40 a pop. They would be getting off cheap. I’m fine with waiting for a JCBA by the way to get something good.

I went to the DTW roadshow. I recommend that everyone go to a roadshow or I believe they will have a streamed one as well. They explain how we got to this point and why they believe this is the best we can get for the short term. They have the ALPA lawyer there, as well as the financial analyst. A lot of your questions and complaints will be answered by the presentation. They also explain why if we do turn this down, we could possibly go into the TPA and the SLI with C2018, which could negatively impact the "career expectations" part of the SLI argument for our side. The ALPA lawyer conveyed that timing really isn't on our side if we turn this down.
Reserve drops was one of my biggest disappointments as well as many on this board (I'm on reserve right now), but they explained why we didn't get that as well. It was I believe the only goal not achieved in this TA.
One of the goals for the TPA is "economic symmetry" with Jetblue.
Everyone has to do what they think is best, and this isn't what a lot of us were hoping for, but I do trust the negotiating team and the pay gains are significant.
Again, go to a roadshow and make an informed decision.

funny 3/4 of the guys on the JetBlue forums are ****ed they didn’t get profit sharing and because of that they are voting NO. Can’t please anyone these days.
Anyways,
you work for a company where it is approved to wear a wannabe Northface jacket to work and look like a F*cking slob…well you get paid like one.
guys get so mad on here about the thought of looking like a professional and wearing a hat. But look at Delta…

It has less to do with the jacket that you so love and more to do with our union having no cojones
