NYC 75 INTL was doing Bogota, DUB, KEF, LIS, GLA, Caribbean, DSS, and a few others I am missing. Most of the NYC 76 flying was going back to the 765 and then 330. Most of the domestic trips appear to have been transcons.
The commute is probably the long pole in the tent. I think most of the DTW-JFK/LGA are on regionals?? Maybe a DTW to JFK commuter can chime in. DTW to ATL would be mostly mainline.
I'd say stick to the 75/76 and enjoy the ride Captain.
I appreciate the thoughts!!! Thats how I'm leaning. I did talk to an ATL LCA and he thought the ER was going to pick up some Europe out of this mess. The other issue is the commute and how senior ATL will get. There are over 250 WB Capt. displacements in DTW I believe and they have to go somewhere. There could be a ton of ATL commuters out of DTW.....
