That makes sense, I just thought originally the plan was for Breeze to start in 2020 with all A220s, and then the reality of what was going in the world and the fact Airbus can only build A220s so fast caused them to go with the E-Jet and delay their launch for a year. I would think there will be a decent amount of E190s coming available from Jetblue in the coming years, so it would make sense for Neelman to pick those up, especially considering they were his planes to begin with.
