While generally depressing there might be a silver lining there too. If Republic increases their Boston footprint, maybe they won't have time to eat our lunch in 4 courses with room for dessert (80+ pairings lost to them) in NYC.

I guess you're under the impression that having finite numbers of 175s is strictly an Envoy problem? And AA switched former Republic 175 pairings to Envoy 145s in Miami because those passengers really liked not having wifi?

Looking forward to seeing Republic open a DFW base lol

So more 76 seaters on the east coast which is why the Envoy NYC base seems to have flatlined for a while now and Republic is growing in Boston and NY.
