If the JFK slot waiver expires, does UA even have the choice to stay? if no slot owner is willing to lease or transfer slots to UA? isn't that end of story?
Suspect some slot owners would either be happy to see UA leave ?
how many / who would be willing to relinquish the desired number of RT slots (probably at least 10, possible perhaps 20 as mentioned earlier)?
Would too high of costs make this prohibitive?
The previous management, exiting from JFK and long term leasing their slots, has left the present management in a bind
