I believe it. Rumor is that we are currently in the process of ETOPS certification, which should take 18months to complete.

New hires are typically offered BOS and JFK. Lately, the majority of new hires have been going to JFK but they are able to bid over to BOS in the next system bid if they want to.

I had the same situation on my application - did anyone figure out what the added V1 represented?

I don't think that would be too far left field from a layman observation.

That's the first thing I thought as well.
