I think its unlikely SNN will be come a main gateway to the US..but if you think about it would be very well placed to do something in that vein if it does get customs and border post. It could be a good option for a t/a player to use it as as a European hub(lower charges, no congestion, immigration, customs etc all in one). Could be a good overall package if sold right. It would certainly benefit the passenger and it would probably have the facilities to cope with it...but I highly doubt it would happen under the DAA's watch. Independence is crucial.
