717s replace the 9 in ATL and increase lift to some shorter stage length LGA markets. The 319s make up for the longer segments the 717 can't cover. Perhaps we'll see entertainment systems on newly acquired 319s.

I'm just hoping to bid out of NYC, but this doesn't seem to promising
I'd agree that NYC/ATL would be shoe ins. DTW also seems likely. And probably SEA and LAX once we roll back the AS code share abuse. I know, not likely we will do that.
