Humble uneducated guess is JetBlue is taking advantage of the gate situation for the long game. They probably don't care about the short haul flying, maybe some point to point stuff near term, but it's low yield anyway to satisfy the short term flying, keep LGB employees in the game. MINT will off course expand for the transcon market, and the A220 will of course offer some new LAX opportunities. But how about a wild guess on what you would do with your extra A321LR/XLR during the Winter months when Europe and London flying are low demand. How about Central, South and deep South America (XLR), and maybe an occasional Hawaii?? Just a guess though.
