They also launched a number of other routes.

The web site shows the former fleet. Last I read, they were going to lease the A-321.

NK FLL-PIT DEC 1.5>3[2.0] JAN 0>3[2]
Also, MCO going 4x daily. NK never had this kind of frequency from PIT on a single route.
NK MCO-PIT DEC 1.9>4[1.0] JAN 0>4[1.8]

Aviation Journalist Seth Miller had an even more interesting tid bit from the AA earnings call yesterday. Saying they will "arrange a number of slot moves at JFK and LGA between the two (B6/AA), along with removing 50-seat jets from the NYC market." That sounds alot like B6 would then take over something like the PIT-LGA route. Although I'd be more in favor of B6 bringing back PIT-JFK instead, because you could now connect on to an international AA flight on the same ticket and frequent flyer number.

But you can already do that with AA. AA already serves PIT-JFK 1-2x daily (pre-Covid) and they still have the elusive 4x daily loaded.
I think too much is being made of the possibility of int'l connections at JFK via a B6/AA tie up. I can't think of a worse connection in the entire northeast than flying in to T5 at JFK, having to leave the terminal entirely, get on the AirTrain, get off at T8 and have to redo the TSA process. No thanks, give me a same terminal connection at PHL or EWR any day over that nightmare scenario. Better yet just give me back the nonstop to LHR.
Having said that, I'd love to see B6 re-enter PIT-JFK. I'd have to think that it is one of their top routes under consideration from JFK.

This is me just completely guessing here, but I'd say Air Canada Jetz probably has the best shot, given the fact that there are numerous other NHL teams that utilize them as their normal charter. Plus I'd assume the Canadian government would rather have a Canadian crew operate the flight.
If I'm completely wrong there, iAero (Swift Air's dumb new name) would be my next guess
