Even the idea of it opening in the supplemental sounds like a long shot. "Such as the potential of opening FLL A220" That doesn't convince me it wil happen any time soon. Sometimes I day dream of past rumors of us being bought by a legacy carrier then I wake up somewhere over the Atlantic on a redeye down to the Dominican Republic. Oh well.

that statement should be the definition of a blue jet pilot if I’ve ever heard one….

like you said we will know tomorrow.
Its not that minds have changed, its all about the number of A220 aircraft we have and expect to have by a hypothetical system bid effective date. JFK was announced once the company reached 30 A220’s. Base openings are closely related to equipment inventory and seeing as how the company only has 34 A220’s on property it’s safe to say we will need to approach the 60 count threshold before another A220 base opening will be announced and attached to an annual system bid or supplemental. To keep the guessing to a minimum just keep tabs on our A220 deliveries and when they approach 60 I would bet on an announcement. Increments of 30 aircraft or close to that number is the beginning number of the base equation.

We should be surpassing 60 220s in 2025 from what I recall recently which would track with a supplemental this fall or winter.
