Requests aren’t guaranteed to be approved however.
Dude. No one is actually saying JetBlue is actually squatting. No one said that squatting is a thing.
Re-read my post.
The spirit of the squatting term isn’t in the sense of someone living in a vacant house, it’s more in the sense of B6 adding capacity that would require more gates so that it would encourage and benefit BCAD to come to a lease agreement. That’s all that I’m saying.
