Guys,
Look, the 737-900 is not cutting edge technology, and not the best choice for a winter, westbound Transcon - granted. But, and its a big but, it will be a solid performer on tons of routes: MSP - anywhere in CONUS, DTW - anywhere in CONUS, ATL- anywhere in CONUS, MEM - anywhere in CONUS, SLC - mostly anywhere in CONUS.
And remember - we will still have the newer 757's for the JFK-SEA stuff against 120 KT HW's in the winter sticking around for years.
Finally, there will probably more orders, so who is to say we will not get a better performing aircraft on the next order.
DAL 737-900 order: perfect -no, good news - definitely!
