I flew JB (B6) for the first time last week - only PIT/JFK/PIT - but for very short flights, all I can say is WOW!!! I had such a great time with the XM & TV! Outbound, I had an empty seat next to me, so I had XM Radio on one system, and the other on TV and I was watching TV (GSN) while listening to the radio - and switching back and forth!! I had such a good time, I just didn't want to get off the plane - REALLY! I was the last one off the plane! I was writing down names and artists of songs I enjoyed on XM so I can get them - and I have XM at home! The new E190 was GREAT! The FA's were absolutely SUPER!! VERY accomodating, especially for such a short flight.
I'd like to say that I'll use JB often, and I'm sure that I will whenever I can, but they just don't fly to many places I go! Also, I have absolutely NO problem taking connecting flights, but with service from PIT only to JFK and BOS non-stop, many to most good locations require you to back-track in order to get there. In another thread someone asked why people here in PIT keep using US instead of JB - - one reason suggested is because PIT people are so invested in the US DM program but I think that many people do not want to fly from PIT to California via JFK!
Anyway - GREAT JOB, JB, I look forward to another great flight experience soon - maybe as soon as October!

PS My favorite "CUTE" thing - also something I've never seen, or perhaps just never noticed before, was the small signs in the lavs that say something like: Do not flush while seated on toilet!! WHAT a hoot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
