Seems like a recipe for further de-emphasizing JFK in general, further cuts to JFK-SFO and no lie-flat expansion out of JFK (or BOS or PHL for that matter).
If they are going to focus on ex-LAX transcons, one can always hope for LAX-BOS...especially since UA has recently loaded 3x 752 with flat beds on that route starting mid-fall.
