LOT Polish Changes to New York Market

[Iberia A340-600]

According to this article:

LOT Polish Airlines will be consolidating their New York operations to Terminal 1 at JFK effective September 1st. This means that the daily WAW-EWR-WAW flight will be terminated and onward connections from JFK will be provided by JetBlue. The article mentions that LOT plans to operate the 787 to JFK as of January 2013, making it the first confirmed 787 for JFK!

Boo yea!

Surprised LOT would be the first- isn't that route a little on the short side for the 787 or do I need a geography lesson

Nah, it's about on par with their 767 service. Besides, the 787 should bring customers just for the pleasure of the new craft :-)
I thought maybe RAM would be first...
