Those e90s were required to be flown in order to satisfy provisions of the NEA with respect to growth in BOS and NYC. If that growth isn’t required, then the e90 at this point might be cost prohibitive enough that they can’t be flown profitably and need to be retired at a quicker rate.

I agree, and it helps us in other very important ways ...

You’re calling your fellow company pilots rats? So much for unity.

Don’t have any concrete info, but just a theory……

the 190’s will be completely done in 2024 (Vs public info that they will be done Q2 of 2025.
Meaning, the August system bid will eventually have everyone displaced out of the E190.

Thats putting a lot of faith in Airbus to deliver at an accelerated schedule for the 220s

Some rumors or Airbus increasing A220 deliveries next year to 2 a month. That would help put the E190s out to the retirement home sooner.

Airbus I’m sure can deliver the planes…can Pratt deliver engines to make them move that aren’t going to destroy themselves is another question…

hell, we still have Neo paperweights sitting on the JFK ramp over that
