I'd imagine that's why AA have moved the goalposts here.
Everything you're saying is true, but of that 9k increase if we use your numbers, the CCR is doing just fine (according to 80% of people in the CCR thread - food quality aside) and that is where a majority of those GGLs are flying through. How many of them are using JFK for domestics? I'd say less than 10% which is still very generous; it doesn't seem a hard fight for BA to make a case.
