The pharma industry is also mostly headquartered along NJ's I-287 belt, but most of these have contracts with UA/CO - they will be harder to dislodge.
Well, those contracts can always be renew, and I'm sure if CX makes a good pitch they will consider it. Yes, thanks for another reason to show why EWR makes sense. Great potential F, J, and Y+ fliers are mostly living in NJ.
