I'm pretty confident about AA is flies out BOS-DCA is more than 6 years in service. So let's the speculations begin.

I saw this coming. Very unfortunate but hopefully with the new interline agreement with B6 an AAdvantage partnership is to follow.

The route began August 1, 2002. It seems to do fairly well as is, but with Delta Shuttle operating hourly MD-88 and E-175, US Shuttle with hourly A319/320, and now B6 it only makes sense.

In the past year Eagle has terminated CHM, STL, and now DCA. Frequencies are down for RDU. This leaves Eagle with JFK, LGA, RDU, and YYZ from BOS. Hopefully some of the Eagle gates will get converted back to mainline. I've noticed an occasional mainline 738 or MD-80 at B25, the gate that Eagle also handles the Spirit A319.

Mainline RONs also seem to be held at B27 which is also an Eagle gate but happens to be on the mainline side before the corridor to Eagle gate area
