The question would be if the few extra routes made possible with a SJU hub be worth the infrastructure/equipment investment and additional gates needed, especially if customs personnel would need to be beefed up to handle the volume. Meanwhile T4 at FLL would probably be more than happy to accommodate with a reduction in the old NK routes that JetBlue doesn’t keep.
