JetBlue Mosaic Challenge without existing status?
I recently started a new job that will require me to make frequent (1-2 times per month) SFO to BOS flights. I was looking to stick with JetBlue for these flights, and was wondering about getting Mosaic status. I understand that the Mosaic Challenge program allows you to earn status quickly. But, it's been a while since I have had to be traveling this much for work, so I don't have any status now on any airlines (I was platinum on USAir in the past).
Given that I would easily surpass the Mosaic challenge requirements, does anyone have any suggestions how I might gain entry to the challenge without having existing status on another airline. Do they have any flexibility?
Thanks.

Especially if you don't currently have status on another airline, i doubt any airline would do anything to accommodate you, sorry. Like you said though, you'll have it in no time!

Unfortunately, the problem is that without a challenge any status will take significantly longer. Anyone have any suggestions? When I first gained status on USAir I did it though a challenge program that didn't require having status on anyone else. Do these kinds of programs still exist?
