Who may open a NYC-area base soon?

Didn't want to post this on an ongoing thread about a specific airline on this forum, however I am looking to change airlines soon.

Does anyone have insight as to who will be the next to open a NYC base? EWR/LGA/JFK/PHL?? I figure with Envoy pulling out, someone has to have something in the works..

Thank you!

My guess is PSA and/or TSA for the American feed. Things change so rapidly in this biz though that until it's announced don't believe that it'll happen.

Trans States has an employee "Call-in Show" tomorrow. My guess is they announce a new base... I'll keep you posted.

The timing doesn't support that.

For now only the EMB base. For the time being Envoy will still have the CRJ base. Envoy pilots were already told that it will be Trans States replacing that flying in NY for the 145's and that Envoy's 145's will be fully removed from NY by the 4th quarter of this year.

There's no way to know for sure.

AA apparently hasn't told PDT where we will be flying those jets, just that they'll be here by x-mass.

Everyone here seems to be convinced that just bc we had a base in
LGA at a point in time it has to be us. Farrow told the upgrades a few weeks ago it's gonna be DCA.
