JFK-CLT upgrade to A320?
What do you guys think about the huge success of CLT, I was looking for flights for the weekend and everything is sold out. Even Monday has some sell-outs. Any chance this will go A320 soon? I'd like to see Parker's letter now about how Jetblue will be a non-presence down there.

How are the RDU flights doing?
On a side note, I hear RIC, AUS, PWM and PIT are developing nicely as well. Don't know about JAX.

Also, how can they have 101 seats sold when jetBlue never, ever overbooks?

On a side note, according to multiple people on a.net, it seems that the marketing department is slacking in the newer markets. Apparently, there has next to nil marketing at BNA, and it is not much better at PIT. What's going on?

On a side note, is it just me or has B6 had a lot of new routes recently that have struggled? (ex. BUR to MCO/LAS is defunked, EWR/SJU is shutting down, JFK to PIT, RIC, PWM amoungst others rumored to struggle)
