Exactly who else would move in? United is at EWR. American is at PHL and JFK. Although Delta is hubbed at both at JFK and LGA, they probably have enough coverage at both EWR and PHL. Spirit is at ACY, so I can't see them doing anything out of TTN (though I couldn't guess what might happen IF Spirit buys Frontier).
So who is left? Southwest? Allegiant? One of the small Regional or Commuter carriers like Silver or PennAir? If they think Frontier couldn't make TTN work in the long-term, why would they move in?

It seems a lot of what has happened in the Northeast (ILG and IAD; plus, it seems, TTN) hasn't met the current owners' expectations.
