Sort of. Class II wasn't "pulled" but suspended until March. SWA decided they could use the -800's more effectively elsewhere than the one BWI-SJU run. It's also true that some inflight crews have not completed their over water training - this will buy some time for that. I haven't heard anything about mx being an issue, and to the best of my knowledge, this wasn't anything FAA driven.
