Eastern Airlines filed a CAB motion outlining a 21-city New England pattern with 864 weekly departures, mostly jet service and Electras at smaller airports. The plan would be underwritten by Eastern and National to offset about 5.1 million dollars annual loss, aiming to ease competition gaps between New England and Florida. Boston and New York would be major hubs.
