The problem is that FLL would also work for most of these and has much better O&D

They have publicly said the desire is to make FLL into a connect hub in the future, which would mean a lot of stuff like this.
I'm just a point A to point B guy, but I'm just imagining SJU as a hub connecting all points Latin America plus Spain, and also a hurricane season alternate hub to FLL, MIA and MCO for Lat Am pax to clear customs when Florida is shuttered from a big storm.
