I have no trouble as a junior guy in CVG holding NRT, SYD, TPE, etc. Schedules don't change often if you're on a regular line (excellent for those of us bidding for pay).

JFK is senior, and I've heard those guys don't often give up a day off for gateway. These cats also have R1 lines (home reserve).
JFK has very few trip pair lines and mostly R2, from what I've seen so far. YMMV.
