Management doesn't share their strategy with us who knows what their plan is but I'm sure they have a room full of people thinking stuff up and then a room of people backing them up. Plus our amazing F-teen guys backing them up.
LGA is slot restricted... having more gates means absolutely nothing. EWR is not slot restricted but gate constrained. I'm shocked to see SWA give up Newark.
