When they can, based on math and wanting the 99% instead of the 1% of the fare, Im guessing they will.
Are you guessing that or just in a blind rage over your misinterpretation of codesharing?
Oh shat, now you're guessing we will?

Let me spell it out for you, ETOPS simply requires a properly run ETOPS cert program, some INVESTMENT, a smidge of RISK, and about 18 months.

I'm not sure if you've ever heard of this airline called Virgin America? They started years after JB, flew A320s, and flew to Hawaii. We have CHOSEN not to start our ETOPS program in time to start Hawaii service. But we do codeshare with Hawaiian to HNL. And likely an Alaska codeshare on our future. And Moxy. And more JetSuiteX.

Wow Air flies BOS-KEF with current generation A321s, same as ours. We COULD have an ETOPS program, instead we codeshare to KEF.

Next year, add many European destinations to the list of places we could reach with new Airbus narrowbody delivies and an ETOPS cert. But we will codeshare.
