Not ALL of BOS-JFK is going to CRJ200, but a year ago there was essentially no CRJ on this route now it is common and it looks like they are moving more CRJ200s into this market. Honestly on a BE ticket I'd be pissed to have CRJ200 on BOS-JFK. If they want to keep JFK as a hub and BOS as a key market they need to run decent equipment and E175, C9 and C7 are all acceptable ... C2 is not.
