Honestly I'm not willing to give up anything. There doesn't need to be any concessions made, not for a company that has increased its amount of revenue at the rate that it has and will continue to do so. We need to be compensated for that for our input to the performance this company has achieved.

Nice puff piece for jetBlew in the Miami Herald today. Anyone else see an NK b1tch-slapp from the FLL airport director?

JetBlue ramps up in Fort Lauderdale | Miami Herald Miami Herald

Broward County aviation director Kent George said that the airline’s growth is “extremely good news” for the community, which has responded well to JetBlue’s offerings.
“They’re a wonderful carrier,” he said. “They provide a wonderful product and they’ve really filled a niche in the community with great service — and that service includes customer service too.”

Very few of them seem happy at work or even act like they care about the customers.

Customer service is jetBlue's bread and butter, they do a great job of it and have built a nice loyalty base for themselves. Somebody is paying for all of those blue snacks, TV, and WiFi, even if people like to think of it as "free".
+1. They run a very good airline and are profitable all while paying their employees reasonable wages.

The lip service being paid to customer service is starting to get a little nauseating. If we're not going to seriously change how we treat our customers, I wish we'd just keep quiet about it. It cant be that hard to set this right. It's not the pilots or flight attendants, it's the surly gate agents, the lack of gates, the poor communication with passengers, the awful gate areas, by the time the passengers get on the airplane they've already got a bad taste in their mouth.

My interaction with the pax is positive.
Lately however I am starting to wonder if that is because I mostly interact with them on their way out.
They certainly seem happy to deplane...

MYR ramp was outsourced.
According to our ramp crew, it was pure union busting.
Not the best way to build an airline for the future.
