"Thank You Jetblue EWR Crew"??
I arrived on Southwest this afternoon at EWR and as I'm making my way down the long corridor between A1 and landside area, I see a sign written in masking tape on a window of a employee only office or something, it said "Thank You Jetblue EWR crew" (or something very similar). Anyone know what the B6 EWR crew did or are they moving to another concourse or terminal?

I can see why. I did a roundtrip to EWR last week. BOS-EWR had maybe 80 people on board, EWR-BOS had around 25. At 100 seats per E190, that's 80% and 25% loads respectively. Ouch!

United ended with 79.6. For comparison JFK-BOS on B6 was only 75.7, but AA was 65.9 (!) and Delta was 79.8

Not true. It's always been a route that's run 2-6 times a day since it started. Fewer flights in the winter (4 times weekdays) than in the spring/summer (5-6 times weekdays). Random check of days this December shows 4 times a weekday and 5-6 times a weekday next spring and summer.
