Yes, JFK is almost always elite heavy. Back when I was gold a few months ago, I was in F on 203, and when I was asked when I would like to shower, my 2 preferred times were unavailable because most of the cabin was full of gold and an IO. Plat has made this better, but it is one of the destinations that will always be elite heavy. Ive also noticed that flights to SYD have quite a few elites as well.
