JetBlue TrueBlue - overheard tidbit JFK - ORD

the terminal was quiet yesterday afternoon relative to the normal zoo it feels like, so I overheard a pilot discussing JFK-ORD with another pilot.

For the next few months, at least, the A320s currently scheduled are being replaced with E190s.

I don't know how big a deal this is (or isn't). It might not be significant, given this has already been a route where both aircraft are being used. (I took an E190 to ORD but will be going back on an A320.) With that said, if this does make any difference, it will be interesting to see where the A320 capacity will be moved.

I booked a trip to ORD for the end of October

picked seats on an A320 outbound and E190 inbound

About three weeks ago, on 8/21, I flew JFK-ORD on the A320. It was a Tuesday early afternoon and a load with about 90%. I would think the downsize on some flights (IF true) is due to the slowing travel season. Obviously markets such as ORD do better in the summer. B6 also has the A320 flights to LGB, anyone know how these are doing?
