United Eyeing JFK Slots for Expansion - Thoughts?

So I was just reading that United's CEO, Scott Kirby, mentioned they're looking to snag some slots at JFK. Apparently, they might buy out slots from airlines flying unprofitable routes. Kind of an interesting move, right?

I guess United's trying to make a bigger comeback at JFK, which they haven't been that active in for a while. Makes sense since JFK's a pretty major hub. I wonder which airlines might be willing to sell their slots though. It could be a game-changer for United if they pull it off.

But I'm curious, do you think this strategy will pay off for them? It's a bit of a gamble buying up slots hoping to turn them profitable. Plus, how do you think this will affect the competition at JFK? Could get pretty intense!

Honestly, it'll be interesting to see how this all shakes out. Anyone have any insights or thoughts on which routes United might go after if they get those slots?

United trying to snag JFK slots is bold. They haven't really had a big presence there for a while, so it could shake things up. I'm curious about which routes they'd focus on. Maybe more international flights? JFK's already crowded, so competition could get fierce. Wonder if any smaller airlines are looking to offload their slots. It's risky, but if they can make those routes work, it might pay off big time. Would love to see how this affects Delta and American at JFK too.
