Based on the 330 flying in Boston now I doubt a 330 base. It's to easy to build 6 day trips through Boston and eliminate credit time for the NYC base by combining a long leg (ATH, TLV, FCO) with a short leg (AMS, DUB, LHR). 6+ day trips out of NYC have at least tripled since Boston expansion.

FAs have been told FCO and TLV going year round next year. Assuming both are still on the 330 that exceeds the company requirements for a base (CDG and AMS being the other two).

The problem with those 6 day trips (that flight ops "leadership" refuses to learn) is that two six day trips are all that can be awarded to a line holder to meet the construction window, after that, they can't be added via WS, and any WB B halfway aware knows not to have 6 days of LC available with six day trips in open time. These were the primo trips to roll thunder this last summer, especially because many were broken into two 4 day trips and handed out as GS. Fourth floor spreadsheet ninjas know what's best though.
