As a junior JFK captain who lives local with dreams of escaping NY for MCO, I hope they cut BOS and leave JFK and MCO alone!

That’s the dopiest statement I’ve seen on APC for awhile. Congrats.

Thanks, I take that as a badge of honor!

He said he wanted JFK cut but likely MCO would and he doesn't want that (I'm guessing he lives there). I live in NY and want to move to MCO eventually... so why would I want those bases cut?

In either event, whatever I want doesn't matter more than a hill of beans. BOS isnt getting cut because they want to grow to BOS200.

It's just my pipe dream so I don't have to change planes or bases just yet.

Sorry you don't approve.

They say they will offer LHR base starting 2021 to have a better circadian-rhythm-management and maximizing acclimatized duty period!

I don't "want" JFK cut, but it makes the most sense in terms of slots.

You know they wouldn't offer an override. Good luck living in London in B6 rates. Lol

To be clear, I don't want ANYTHING cut either. I want growth. But knowing that something is going to get cut, I'd rather it be somewhere else other than my own base. As would everyone else, and anyone saying otherwise is lying. Not meant to be harsh, it's human nature.
