Strengths and opportunities:
- Strong brand and loyal customer following; retains reputation for good service despite episodes of meltdown at hyper-congested New York JFK
- Based in New York, the world's second largest airline market after London
- Non-unionized workforce
- Strong network to Florida and the Caribbean
- Has added fleet versatility by operating both A320s and E190s
- New terminal at JFK
- Building Orlando as focus city

Weaknesses and threats:
- Debt burden a concern; interest often eats heavily into margins
- Congestion at JFK threatens growth prospects; Boston congested as well
- Diversification away from transcon and Northeast-Florida/Caribbean sectors not going smoothly; shorthaul markets tough
- May have overbought aircraft, especially E190s
