Starting in October, United Airlines (NYSE: UAL) is ending its transcontinental travels from New York JFK Airport and moving flights to Newark Liberty International Airport. These flights include the Premium Services, known as “p.s.”, to San Francisco and Los Angeles. According to USA Today, United is ending its services out of JFK due to the building competition of transcontinental flights. At Newark, United plans up to 17 daily round trips Newark- San Francisco and 15 daily round trips Newark-Los Angeles. USA Today reports that the switch to Newark will give United a strong competitive advantage. The airline has invested more than $2 billion at Newark in restaurants, redesigned gate seating and improved United Club locations. United also announced that it is making a multi-million dollar investment in other renovations at Newark, including its Terminal C lobby and newly designed United Clubs. Delta Air Lines (NYSE: DAL) plans to acquire United’s slot at JFK and United will get Delta’s spot at Newark. According to aviation analyst at J.P. Morgan Markets, the changes will not affect JFK too severely. For more business and financial news, click here.
