Question for 9E JFK Captains
 
What is the percentage of current Captains in JFK that are looking to move to another base fairly quickly?

After this wonderful SLI, I'm just wondering if I can get some seniority in that base quickly or not.

I would say the bottom 10-15. Most of them went to JFK for a better line. The bottom i would say went there just for the upgrade. Thats just my opinion.

I don't think you could get a accurate count on this forum , however I fly with plenty of captains that only took JFK for the displacement and the money. Many are bidding back to Memphis or Detroit and some already have left .

I know, but if anyone on here flys in JFK, they may know the general feeling.

I think JFK is just going to keep growing, either the 900's in ATL or MSP will eventually be headed there. So, if you looking to get some decent seniority, JFK would be the place.

I think the ATL 900's will stay there. Only ones with class II nav.

apparently you haven't heard of the JFK-RKV-DUB route checks for the 900...
