Is there room for AA to play on this route? With DL starting (June 2017), UA upgauging to 772's on this route, and with B6 and VX already in the game, can AA step in here? Potential connections to BA, IB, or AA's own seasonal CDG connection in BOS?
I've been wondering whether AA will join the P2P parade that Delta seems to be on lately, especially considering the combined carrier has inherited quite a few from old LUS routes such as the network from PIT and BOS (BOS-MDT, BOS-SYR, etc.). So far they don't seem very interested, but it's possible they are still focusing on integration of fleets, crew and optimization of each hub. Once that is near an end in a couple years perhaps we'll see some other expansion.
