You'd think that would be the case, but it's all over the place. For example, over the next couple weeks, some days have 3 flights out of 4 with the new LP, some days 2, some 1 and some zero... It seems like it's driven by operational considerations and not service/marketing considerations. I think I mentioned it elsewhere, but my sense is that NY LP pax are primarily driven by schedule considerations etc. (as opposed to new or old LP) and AF probably knows it so it doesn't really care about prioritizing new LP one way or another to JFK.
