So we are going to offer the same onboard product, on more flights, with east coast/Europe connections, eliminate guppies making fuel stops to the west coast, eliminate costs of having another airport in the system, having Delta cut flights out of EWR, and all this is bad?

Additionally we have not had a hard time filling up the flights we already fly between EWR and LAX/SFO. Beyond the few seats in JetBlue's Mint and the small section of F on American's 321s our product is very similar to the Delta and Virgin. Of which Virgin does not offer lie flat, and Delta is still in the process of adding it (with all aisle access).

The only real game changer will be if the perimeter rule is dropped at LGA, and then it is a race to move the service to LGA which would create a higher yield than JFK or EWR.
