Sadly that's not the case. "The FAA has determined to extend through October 30, 2021, the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)-related limited waiver of the minimum slot usage requirement at John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK), New York LaGuardia Airport (LGA), and Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA) that the FAA already has made available through March 27, 2021."

There’s no plan. They’re strictly doing this on a whim and hoping that travel comes back by spring break. This was said in the Qrp podcast.

Writing is on the wall, at least with AA. LGA is going to become a superbase of reserves with a bunch of disgruntled Jr. CAs/FOs displaced from the other bases. Crashpad owners in Queens are going to make out like bandits.
Again, this is the perfect airline if you live within 2 hours of LGA. Otherwise you would be wise to apply elsewhere.

Kinda feels like Republic management doesn’t actually have a clue, you’d think they’d be staffing ORD like IND or CMH. It still amazes me that ORD has 80+ departures a day vs LGAs 4 and management STILL thought it was a good idea to send 90% of the MIA base to LGA.... just comical at this point. It’s like they’re throwing as much sh*t at the wall as they can to see what sticks. Can’t imagine our partners will put up with us deadheading all those useless crew members around the system for too long....
