Is anyone's crystal ball showing this route coming back?

US and DL still fly direct to ATH from PHL and JFK, so economic reasons can't be completely to blame. NY/NJ really needs another carrier, especially a *A one. On such a long flight, connections are risky and undesirable, especially when traveling with family. Driving to PHL or JFK from Northern New Jersey is almost as bad as a connection!

Much thanks to anyone with some insight on this.
