What he said.
FWIW, the last few AEs have been loaded with B717 and A220 B (FO) slots. There were zero openings for Bs on the Boeing narrowbody (73N) and hybrid 7ER (757/767). Only a handful of A320 B openings.
That being said, was a bit surprised they didn't throw in some 717 positions in the October drop....they always seem to need more staffing there. And it wasn't too long ago that the A220 B was considered a cush starting spot, as it was well-staffed and folks were getting sweet schedules. The people that I know that fly it speak quite highly of how intuitive the airplane is. Guess some of the FOs there are starting to transition to other equipment.
With BOS opening as an A330 base, there were a large # of A & B openings there on the recent AE, which should create some movement in the various narrowbody fleets. There are just so many BOS commuters, folks will be drawn to the base from all different fleets.
