E190 routes
 

It has been a while since any new E190 routes have been announced and those that have been announced have already commenced. Are there any rumors of any new routes being made public for start up in the Q1 of '07? Or should we expect to see B6 increase the frequency on some of the routes they arleady serve (i.e. BOS-CMH or AUS going to 2X daily)?

I don't think there are any new routes left for this year. Not sure what the company has planned for the beginning of next year either. Somebody in MKE has started a rumore that we are aquiring 2 gates over there, but nothing from the company yet.

{{crossing fingers for JFK->ELP}}

NO direct flights form the NYC area.

You made 1/2 of my life's wish come true with JFK-Tucson (althoguh I dont make 5 RTs a year there anymore), now that I go to ELP 2 RTs a year (wife's family), you can complete my life by offering me direct service.

Two of the flights on the JFK-ORD route will be E190s. I think JFK-PWM also converted to E190s recently.

With a lot more new E190s coming next year, I think we'll have to hear about some new routes or additional frequencies soon.

I saw one in Sea the other day. I thin k it was on Tues. Any idea why?

Praying for ABQ, though we recently did get daily ns to EWR from CO. It used to just be Sat only, Summers Only

Don't know what the 190 was doing at SEA.

As far as ABQ, it won't happen with the 190. While it may be within range for the aircraft, keep in mind that with a full flight, bags, fuel and a strong headwind on the westbound leg in the winter, it won't be a reality. ABQ might come on but I would bet with the A320.

As mentioned, ORD will have some E190's and PWM was switched to E190. I think CLT goes on and off between the two types due to demand.

a.net has the MKE rumor and it would be a great addition to the network. I'm hoping for MSP and STL.

Also, let's keep in mind the west coast has yet to see any E190's.

The west coast won't see any 190s any time soon as we have no where to put them. LGB is slot restricted and we are at the limit, unfortunatly the 190s don't fall into the commuter exemption. OAK is another possibility however it would need to be a base first (not looking like a possibility for another couple of years), not to mention we are short of gate space to handle an increase in flights. I'm not sure if WN is planning on giving up thier current gates when they move into their new terminal.
