Wonder if/when any of the LCC's may buy some A330's? B6 or NK perhaps?

At NK 330s were looked at years back, and they concluded that it just doesn't make any sense for us....now more 320s-321s , I see a possibility.

Who knows, once we have over 100-120 320s they may revisit the 330 program.

A bigger A320/321 fleet is required at NK before adding any 330's for sure. I'm surprised B6 hasn't gone for the 330 yet. I guess all the code sharing with foreign carriers negates the need for their own long haul lift. Although, with their MINT product, I'm sure they could give Delta or UA a good fight out of NYC-Europe.

If jetblue ever got fat bodies, the number that's always been floated was 250 narrow bodies to feed the fat bodies. We'd go south with them not east.

JetBlue will never get any 330's. You guys codeshare with anyone who will sign the dotted line that comes into JFK.

Doesn't seem much different than all your joint ventures and skyteam alliance partners

Other than the fact that written into those agreements is the fact that the Delta pilots have to fly 50% of the seats. For example, for every one A-380 that Air France flies across the pond, that equates to two 767ers.
