For 190 it’s approximately 3 years for 190 upgrade in BOS & JFK. Even with 190 retirements I don’t think it’ll deviate far from that number but it’s hard to tell because their plans for them always change. 190 BOS I’m more confident saying it will remain in the 3-4 range but it depends how many head over to the A320/A220. It’s 5-7 years currently for BOS A320 like Mainline Flyer said. 5-7 years on the 190 in BOS puts you roughly in the middle of the CA seniority list.
I didn't include the 190 because honestly nobody cares about upgrading on that plane at our pay rates.

With the amount of premium pay available, I’d wager many 190 CAs make more per year than junior 320 CAs. They probably work harder (depending on your definition of “work”), but in my humble opinion, flying five legs per day up and down the east coast was more of a deterrent to upgrading on the 190 than the pay rate.

3 years ago they said that they’d be retiring the e190 by now. They haven’t retired any yet and only a couple scheduled to leave next year. The needs of the NEA for hourly BOS-LGA flights might delay things more.

Straight from JS in CQT. Network planning tried to get them to retire 20 in July alone, but they (flight Ops) told them it wasn’t possible.

Okay. That’s all news to me. The last quarterly investor report was 6 e190 retirements in 2023 and none this year.
