Congratulations on the CJO! NYC should work for you. 9e usually operates at least two BOS to JFk flights a two and you get jumpseat priority on those. Plus there's the LGA shuttle which runs pretty frequently. Worst case you can take the train or drive but unless there's a major mechanical or weather issue you shouldn't have too much of a problem getting to work. JetBlue is a good backup as well.
Things should hopefully keep improving and if there's any chance they can actual hire the kind of numbers they want then movement should be pretty good next year.

First flight to JFK from BOS is usually in the gate by 650 and he last on leaves JFK at 2250 with a ton in between plus 2 hourly shuttles to LGA. In the 4 years I've done the commute to JFK I've had to spend the night in NY 4 times, and I am not senior.
Commuted to DTW for a couple months. It's not bad, but much more limited. People who complain about the BOS-NYC commute have never had a real commute. This one is simple.

Thanks Bar Harbor and Papa Mike for the good info. My first post here. I have a CJO for January 900 class. I am from MA, so JFK or LGA sound like my first choices as, despite the typical NYC delays, they would seem to be the most commute-friendly out of BOS. I would be new to the commuting world (and yes, I have a vague idea of what I'm getting myself into) so any advice about whether the NYC thing is a good or bad idea would be appreciated.
My overall experience with Endeavor has been very positive. The whole trip out there for the interview was seamless, from the BOS-MSP flights to the hotel, as well as the interview process. All of the people involved from both the HR and Flight Ops side were very friendly and professional, and there always seemed to be a plan as to what was going on. Good vibes from people all around that they were working at a place that is on an upward trajectory. The other 3 interviewees were great company as well, and all of us got CJOs. We all agreed that it was a positive experience that left us feeling good about the place. Granted, like the Army recruiter in Stripes telling you about all the wonderful, exotic destinations the Army will show you, all the kool-aid is taken with a grain of salt; however, the interview process was well run and organized and I genuinely felt as though I was interacting with people who were happy doing what they were doing.

I agree, however, LGA has a lot of very early shows that are uncommutable, plus a lot of trips that get in around 10pm. I was in LGA for 2 months and that was where 2 of the times I had to spend the night in NY came in.

Can anyone provide me with a little insight on jumping between aircraft. I opted for the first class available to me which was a 900 only. Being a MSP local you can very well imagine that I would like to make my way back to Minneapolis ASAP. I know things are looking up, but with that said I am still hearing MSP 900 F/O may be a good ways out. If that were the case and I elect to go to the 200, what exactly is the process and is that frowned upon?
