Twice daily E90 service CLE-BOS starting in April 2015.

I'm a little surprised they didn't time the morning flight for more Caribbean connections, though this schedule is likely far better for most business travelers and doesn't require a plane to RON.

This new service sort of fills some of the gaping holes left by United when they cut back on the BOS-CLE express flights that CO used to have. I'll take an E190 over an ERJ any day.

Could UA will eventually to dropped nonstop CLE-BOS?? I am so surprise to hear the news and I didn't realize that. They will be done very well. Perhaps, how about FLL or MCO? Will they consider it?

Can someone tell me if there is a wall on the 190 in row one? Thank you.

Yes, there is. I still enjoy that seat for no one reclining into me, but there is a hard bulkhead there.

You'd prefer the E(rj)190 over an ERJ? Hugh?

Actually for many years the CO/UA flights were mainline and they replaced most flight with RJ's. Still had 1 mainline earlier this year. They still operate 4 rountrips during the week.
I am surprised Jet Blue would not have at least 3 trips per day. Only 2 flights makes it hard for the business traveler.

The schedule is very good for BOS-based business travelers. It is not as good for CLE-based. Not too surprising given that B6 sees BOS as the hub driving this decision.

That's true for most BOS markets where B6 suits it well for BOS-based business travelers. One market that's an exception is BOS-ORD.

I think JetBlue figures it's a tough situation with BOS-ORD for business pax, given the high frequency competitor alternatives. But the route is still there on JetBlue, and ideal atleast for leisure pax.

PIT-BOS has the same type of schedule, only 2 flights at the same time of the day.

I would take Jet Blue over Frontier or Spirit. I took B6 a few times CMH-JFK and was impressed with everything.
