The google docs info I referred to in another thread was illuminating in how a heavy UK point of sale sort of negates the idea of an US carrier from flying here as those airlines go where Americans want to go.
This is for comparison - I can see a case for ATL increasing as it performs fare better for VS at MAN against Delta at EDI. 59000 passengers paying $1K fares for 25 cents for revenue per mile versus 52000 passengers paying $700 fares at 18 cents for revenue per mile. It's JFK and Orlando that truly dip the average MAN transatlantic revenue per mile down - with them included it's 1.13 million passengers at 14 cent a mile Without them, it's 520,000 passengers at 17 cents a mile VS just need convincing that instead of adding more JFK and MCO, it may be better them reintroducing BOS and LAX

It is curious that they haven't introduced something else like as you say Boston or LAX especially LAX considering its West Coast.
