CAL 737s however DID replace them.
Look at the city pairs that our 737's used to serve. Most are served by 70 seat RJ's now. Case in point...DFW, where I've been commuting from for over 15 years. One UA A320/day and one CO 737/day and FIVE 70 seat RJ's. Used to be eight 737's/320's a day. Our 737's were indeed parked to "rightsize" no doubt. But, RJ's DID replace the 737s at UAL...PERIOD.
