Default Re: B6 EMB190?

JetBlue isn't making money by paying it's pilots and FA's very little. Crew costs, even at pre-concessionary rates are roughly $5-$7/ticket/hour.

Resumes are rolling in, even though you're more likely to fly an E-190 for most of your JBLU career without rights to bid over to the higher-paying A-320 so why pay crews one red cent more? If all of the lawn services are offering to skillfully trim my landscaping for $75, why would I pay $76?

Don't believe the "paradigm shift/re-alignment/market forces/new-reality" hype, yo!
