We also hold options for 30 more 737's. the fleet plan has us parking 85 757's in that period. There will be some A320's parked in Addition to the 757's however the net gain in airframes should be around 130 hulls. That number includes the 90's not yet in service.
Thanks Sailing for the info, but dont you know that facts aren't nearly as entertaining as rumors and speculation?
