They will have B6 and B7 to expand in if they choose to. Right now B6 was turned into a temporary Hudson Books, but the jet bridge is still there. B7 should be ready to go if Delta would want to use it; UA used it as an overflow gate a few times a day previously.

They also have the lower level gate of B1 that AC used to use and the apron space in front of it. I don't think AC has used the gate itself in quite some time, but they have used the apron to park the DH1's they flew in. I'd imagine they will use that space so they can park 3 jets on that side of the concourse easily.
