I've heard rumors that this is where the Alaska 700's will end up, but I've also heard that they are just being parked. In any case, I can only imagine that it will be a reduction in 200 flying.

I don't think delta can bring on anymore 76 seaters right? Or at least not many, that's why the 200's are still flying as much as they are, there's just nothing to replace them yet.
Alaska and Horizon own or lease all but one of the "alaska 700's" operated by OO. Those will not be flying for anyone else.
