NY isn’t even open yet. I don’t see how we could possibly predict these numbers

If I was a betting man I'd put my numbers on that as well. If we can get a nice spike for mid/late summer into Labor day weekend, and then another bump for the holidays I'd be happy. All of my non-aviation friends who had trips planned this year have now converted them to either stay-cations or they're driving somewhere within a couple hours of home.

Most of my friends have vacations planned and can’t wait to go. I expect travel to
come back pretty soon. Having our largest base in nyc will hurt but most nycers probably
want to get out to an island pretty quickly I’d bet.

have you happened to open up PBS today? Because if you see the 190 flying. You’d definitely question 40%. Maybe 40% of the 7 planes we have flying. I heard 200 flights a day in July and 700 in august. That’s obviously complete BS. Unless the company is planning on paying up when they break the crease and desist again.

The 190 side is a bloodbath, absolutely.

The 190 flying is crazy low.

It makes sense when you factor in the social distancing. Doesnt make much sense to fly around a 190. You need the 320’s for that.

Plus the business markets which are almost exclusively 190 type of flying, PHL, DCA, LGA etc.... Jetblue in total in about 20% business travel. I’m sure it’s much higher when you look just at the 190 fleet.

You’ll find a lot of traditional 190 flying on the 320 side for July..... at least in the JFK Bus pairing set

JFK 190 has something like 10 projected line holders according to the cover sheet. I think they've just shifted most of the flying to the 320. the 320 numbers look much more reasonable.

How the 190 survives this is going to be interesting
