Fuel is still relatively cheap today, yet United require state subsidy to maintain BFS on high 80's LF..?

Subsidies, no APD, cheap fares; even Durham Teeside could fill a 757 with that level of support.

Well played United; laughing all the way to the bank.

This must be the last life support injection for what seems more and more like a vanity project. Political meddling and fiscal irresponsibility on a grand scale.

If they go, they go; leave it Norwegian or their ilk once the 737MAXs or neos come on line.
