Thank you for your detailed reply, but I will reply to the above in isolation in this post. UA could presumably move two of its four weekly SFO frequencies to EWR. This is how DL plays under the current rules (DTW and SEA 2x each). That having been said, 857 is UA's most profitable flight and Apple (its largest corporate account) revenue alone ensures this.
