This could be a gain for other cities though. If NY puts up a fuss then what about Boston instead? Same problem for London. Just don't go to Heathrow.

a train from Luton to London, it's overall slower than a subsonic plane.

The amount of business traffic from boston to some place that isn't heathrow is miniscule compared to NY-heathrow.
