I just thought, well based on personal experience my colleagues in Zurich (within finance sector) have much less contact with Americans than historically so thought NYC/ZRH flights were in less demand than rest of global reach. Certainly agree still the dominance of Swiss banking globally.
Anyhow this is in the context of my own petty need of GPU clearing into Polaris. Can't bear the thought of flying to Europe in E+ despite the deterioration of Polaris experience on-board.
