The vacancy bid is for 9 CVG first officers to be displaced from JFK.
I don't think this will result in anymore recalls. IMHO, we will not see any major recalls at Comair. All subject to change pending the LGA slot swap and the DTW base.

So, a flight attendant told me that D.S. And a FA manager are in Jfk today. Any truth to this, or is it just a F.A. Rumour?

It might be a big deal, it might not. However, I've heard rumors that Jfk will be closing in August.

Pizza and drinks at JFK today. DS is not at JFK to announce the base will be closed. Don't get me wrong, JFK could close as base in Agust, anything is possible.

A friend of mine who was in JFK today, heard SB tell people that yes, JFK is closing as a base at the end of the summer. I guess DL's plans for a T2 and T3 redo are in full swing.

I guess I stand corrected

Is JFK being replaced by DTW, LGA, or more reduction in flying?

I think the answer to your question varies day to day. I'm going to bite my tongue until a memo comes out on epic-- of course, once the memo comes out, the answer will most likely still change.
