New York City Area

Service between and the three main New York City area Airports (JFK, EWR, and LGA) has changed a lot over the last 15 years. Before Jetblue started flying the SYR-JFK route it was serviced by 3-4 American eagle saab 340 flights, EWR was serviced by 4-5 Continental Express ATR-42 flights, and LGA by a mixture of US Airways mainline and express flights with around 8 frequencies.
Nowadays JFK is served by 4 Jetblue flights (2 A320 and 2 E-190) and Delta Connection's 3 CRJ/E-145 flights, EWR by 4 COEX E-145/E135 flights, and LGA by a US Airways Express mixture of Dash-8, CRJ, and Saab 340's operating an average of 8 flights a day. What this means that JFK has gone from dead last in terms of capacity to number one (LGA is #2 and EWR #3) with it also being the only NYC airport to have 2 carriers flying to it from SYR.
