JFK-TPE was pretty low. Seems like my hypothesis of Delta leeching JFK customers over to SEA might actually hold some weight then.
Canadian routes are doing great, I initially thought YVR might be affected given the proximity to SEA, but it's clearly not. The weakness in IAH really makes me wonder about EVA's DFW-TPE launching later this year.
The big changes to look out for are going to be BR's increase to 10x weekly and JX going daily out of SEA. I actually don't think the Dec LFs are screaming immediate route cancellations. Keep in mind the Taiwanese carriers have strong cargo operations too.
