Hi all,
I have heard from entire a.net while ago. B6 will inaugurate new routes from BUF/RCO-MCO and here the schedules came in today.
Flight 662 MCO-BUF 1220-1500
Flight 663 BUF-MCO 1540-1830
Flight 673 ROC-MCO 0800-1050
Flight 674 MCO-ROC 1120-1400
I would imagine if B6 will made more capacity growth in MCO. I am not even sure which specific dates will inaugurate from BUF/ROC-MCO. Thanks all! :)

Hmm....if this is true, I wonder where these planes are coming from - are they taking away a JFK rt or using a whole plane for an additional route from these cities.
EDIT: Just checked out the B6 website, and the new flight scheds are loaded in. Looks like the both flights start 11/15. For ROC, what they're doing is just moving the 7:40 departure to 2:40. Therefore, the RON will now do a RT to MCO, and then go to JFK after that. Not sure where that plane would go after it used to get to JFK at 10AM-ish, but either they got a new plane to cover that, or are just cutting it.

B6 will gets PWM-MCO only for winter seasonal January 10 through April 30, 2008.
B6 will became both BUF/ROC-MCO is all year-round. Thanks all! :)
I'm sure the BUF-MCO flight is going to be a home run. Lots of Canadians head to BUF to get down to Florida as it is. The convenience of a non-stop to MCO with DirecTV and XM Radio will draw even more, especially families with young children.

BUF-MCO/FLL are going to be hits. I wouldn't be suprised to see those two routes get a second r/t (seasonally of course) with a second E-190 or upgraded to an A320 (1x daily) during peak times of the year.
One thing I am suprised at is how quickly those are coming online. Usually the announcements come about 90+/- days out. Both MCO-BUF/FLL routes are coming online in under 2 months.
