The biggest hang up I was told about was Delta didn't want to compensate ZW for cancellations that were not ZW's fault, i.e. Weather, ATC delays, et al. Being that a large part of the flying was rumored to be out JFK, it was smart not to sign up for it.
I've always pointed to this no-deal as to why I believe ZW will keep its doors open after Q1 2018. They are pretty savvy with their long-term strategy.
