Oh no, giving up 3 gates in EWR and 3 gates in BOS, how tragic...

Yeah, about 25-30 flights daily, vs 225 for JetBlue.

I don’t think that would greatly hurt SpirBlue much.

None of them have shut the MFR down and walked the pavement in one of the worst of job markets, and the majority of ours haven't. DTZ needs to be the bar everything starts from. We need to lead here in a positive manner as no one likes change and pilot egos are stubborn and fragile.
Couldn't agree more. Well said!

JB doesn't have 225 in EWR. All of NYC maybe.
