I guess the quarterly movement of senior 190 FOs bidding over might negate that in the long term though.
I would advice not bidding the E190 at this stage, the majority of new hires this years (Prob 75-80%) went to the E190 and I think they are slowly getting caught up filling those empty seats left by the folks that transitioned to the Airbus. JFK E190 base will continue to shrink, a good amount of people always bid out to BOS on every bid. If you want or do get the E190 I would go to BOS.
I think new hire classes will start to see more Airbus slots in the coming months, with the current vacancies and the fact we have 15 new Airbus planes coming next year, makes me think the Bus/E190 ratio per class will switch again. Everything is so cyclical.
