I''ve been invited to a flight attendant interview for JetBlue and am VERY interested in the company...but have so many questions/concerns...could someone with accurate information please clue me in?
1) How long is training? I heard it was partially in MIA and partially in NY.
2) Is training paid?
3) I know accomodations for training are provided in MIA...are they also provided in NYC?
4) I currently live in the Philadelphia area...if I were to be based in JFK...would it be possible to commute?
5) How much notice are you given to report for duty? I''ve been told that you need to be available within 2 hours of JFK, but that you are ALMOST ALWAYS given 6-8 hours before a trip to prepare and get ready and report to the airport.
6) I''m REALLY interested in being based in FLL, how long would it to take to get a transfer into FLL as a new hire?
7) How many flight attendants are currently employed by jetBlue? How many are baed in JFK? How many in FLL?
8) What can I expect to make as a new flight attendant? What is the minimum guarantee? How many hours am I permitted to fly and how many hours can I REALISTICALLY EXPECT to fly?
9) As a US Airways flight attendant currently on furlough, will I be asked to give up my seniority number and resign from US Airways? (And on a personal note...do you believe that leaving a possible future with US Airways is worth the opportunity to be employed at jetBlue?)
I know these are a lot of questions...but if someone could help me out with FACTUAL information...it would be GREATLY appreciated!
