JetBlue Airways
Gary Leff at ViewFromTheWing.com found that JetBlue had offered to pay 350 pilots half of their maximum hours (or 2/3rds of average compensation) for the month of April to not fly at all. He points out that following the retirement of CEO Robin Hayes, and the entry of investor Carl Icahn, the carrier is looking to reduce unprofitable routes, and shore up more revenue.
The carrier remains actively appealing a judicial decision that block its acquisition of Spirit.
