Then you add in epic movement from retirements combined with fleet growth with the imminent arrival of the 321NEO. And folks want to talk about $40 uBers. Talk about stepping over a dollar to save a nickel.
I think you're spot on. With NYC being so commuter heavy I think the new positions on multiple fleets in DTW and SEA grab alot of folks out of NYC. Combine that with the NYC Widebody A positions freeing up alot of NB A positions in addition to the vacancies and you have all kinds of opportunities available in the Big Apple.

Plus with positive space commuting + no backup required for the next ~18 months maybe that pill becomes easier to swallow for some.
