A220 will do it.

Yep. But they keep talking about making a dent in the premium market, so it’ll be interesting what they are going to do. All mint etc.

The LR will have no trouble with LHR, Dublin or Shannon. I VERY much doubt JB will use the A220.

It will be an LR, likely followed by XLR deliveries later.

Unless this entire thing is Virtual, which would be standard ops for JB.

Have a good time flying the A220 or LR on a random route Atlantic crossing. 150 SOB’s we have ummm 20minutes of fuel remaining.

Didn’t realize that the lr was actually keeping the promises that they were stating. I thought that was why they were pushing the xlr so quickly. Just looked up some of the test flights.

The LR has way more range than any 220. Even the regular 321neo has better range. I’d be very surprised if we tried TATL with a 220.

The email says “All hands on deck”.

We’re going alright, but it’s gonna be on ships. Ship Blue. Boaty McBlue Boat. London’s Bluest Cruise Line.

I’m bidding Ship’s Boy. They don’t have to threaten me with a good time.

Maybe Jetblue is getting into the fish catching business then. We already have the perfect guy for it to run the operation.
