Expect to see a 320 base in IAH and increase 320 flying out of EWR at about the same time, Sept 2012. Both of these will be 320 flying out of ORD and maybe some out of the West Coast(SFO/LAX). Again block hour ratio will remain the same no windfall. Could see 320 pilots moving into widebody slots(747/777) they can hold with an open bid.
