Unlikely in EWR for awhile, as they just displaced off the 777. First year pay is the same though, so just take the 737FO slot and immediately bid for WB. Or take the NB CA slot and wait out the seat lock. There have been ideas floated about a triumphant return to JFK but anybody who wants to stick with EWR trips only will get them.

EWR is a large, fairly junior base with a lot of great flying, which is only going to get better with 321s and new Maxes. That said, how many times a month you think you’ll make that drive? If on RSV could be zero. Or 10. Don’t know if that weighs enough to pick one over the other. Good luck!
