Well it's the only plane that JetBlue has that can do the flight nonstop given the geographic limitations. 2-4-2 on a 767 is gross (most airlines have 2-3-2, some foreign carriers -- especially LCCs -- often squeeze in an extra seat) and even I would probably take JetBlue over that
JetBlue had an accident with a 200Y A321ceo last night at JFK so that plane is down for the count for probably a week at least. Most routes use the CEO and NEO interchangeably (obviously excluding GYE and other places like BUR if it gets the big plane) so it will be interesting to see which cities get the shaft this week.
