good to see AF using A318 but it's a few months away yet
ORD with AA would probably have made a lot more sense than JFK and UA as there would have been a ready supply of OneWorld loyalists out of NCL (there will be hardly any Star Alliance flyers in the North East) and ORD is a far better hub to transit to US destinations. But then again AA and BA are in revenue share agreement over the North Atlantic so it may not have made sense to them.
Probably irrelevant in the short to medium term, especially with the weakness of the pound.
