Hopefully, Munoz will take hold of the situation and fry JS and his offending underlings to the point that the Justice Department takes him to task and puts him in jail.
I am not defending Jeff's management blunders by any means. However, look at how incredibly expensive Newark is to operate out of. Perhaps he decided to take a calculated risk to try and do what he could for the benefit of UAL. Obviously he didn't count on the entire Port Authority swamp being drained. The figures in this article are absolutely outrageous. What a classic NY / NJ ripoff. To outgun ORD by such a wide margin is astonishing.

Also look long and hard at the ATL figures for our DAL pals:
