So it's not an increase in mainline aircraft but rather just holding capacity in place. Well I guess losing those 757s is inevitable so I am glad we're keeping the 9ers around.
About these HVC 757 arrangements, where would they go? And in airplanes the size of 757s do you really get much more range out of them when you replace first class with lie flats? I mean are these NYC-Europe airplanes?
