The shrinking of United's network continues...and it is not a good thing.
An airline can't be everything to everyone. People that live on LI or prefer to originate at JFK are not UAL's core customers and it's silly to waste resources trying to compete for that traffic.

Everyone who's complainig about the end of this route is highlighting the connection opportunities it gave, none of which are particularly profitable business.
