I am curious to know how well JetBlue at RIC (my home airport) is doing with service only to BOS, MCO and FLL. The loss of the JFK flights last November means that there are very few connections, all O&D except for Caribbean destinations through MCO/FLL and out-of-the-way connections through BOS. MCO and FLL always seem to be popular leisure destinations from RIC, though, especially this time of year. BOS is head-to-head with 2 daily RJs on US Airways, which has a loyal frequent flyer base here.
B6 was squeezed at both ends with RIC-JFK, no doubt. Business travelers prefer LGA and more frequent flights, so they tend to fly RIC-LGA on US; leisure travelers have the option of a 6-7 hour drive up I-95; Amtrak; or Greyhound & Chinatown buses. (I usually drive to the NYC area when I need a car there, since rental car prices are so exorbitant there, and the door-to-door time isn't a whole lot faster by air when you count security wait times and all).
