Fuel at a all time high
The pound continues to slip and Norwegian booking are mostly UK outbound whereas JetBlue will be USA outbound with a stronger dollar booking
Norwegian does not have a business offering where the money is
Delta and JetBlue are going to enter this crowded market and have a fare war

The weaker player is going to have a really hard time.
