I'm surprised a 1X daily PHL-JFK hasn't popped up yet. Perhaps one will be loaded for the spring travel season. It could be done with a simple positioning flight (xxx-JFK-PHL-xxx/yyy/zzz and vv). Maybe even a IAD-JFK flight as well, to offer an alternative for UA's service to Europe/S. America at IAD.
