For 220 NYC is there an airport most of the flying occurs out of? JFK or LGA? Or is it all pretty spread out / random for the 3 airports to cover or where trips start and end
LGA 329/429 JFK 78/429 EWR 22/429 |

no way to predict future pairings, but here’s Sept:

Are Green Slip opportunities in NYC common for the 220? Any comparison to the 320/737
I’ve seen the same on the NYC 737…6 months later guys were rolling thunder with 8-9GS’s in a month. Only constant is change. |

Depends…not too long ago the 220 was PHAT on FO…almost no greenies and senior RES FO were going months without flying.

Best part of the 220 is the fact it doesn’t touch Atlanta. You’ll learn why later on.
Can you tell us? |

I'm curious why?
Can you tell us? 2) The engines take so long to start and have so many wind limitations they don't want it clogging up the ramp |

2) The engines take so long to start and have so many wind limitations they don't want it clogging up the ramp But yes, I do agree with your points above and think that it will be a long time before we see the 220 doing any meaningful amount of flying out of ATL. Its bread and butter is the longer routes, and quite frankly any long route out of ATL where the 220 would be a good plane probably warrants the seating capacity of a 737-800/900 or 320/321. |
