We had a fleet of 16 old B747-400s, those are getting parked, but they don't do a lot of transatlantic flying in bundle 1, so those EASKs don't count toward the TAJV. OTOH, we've taken delivery of 5 A330-300s, will take delivery of 5 more A330-300s from the original order of 10 in 2013. We have scheduled delivery dates for 25 A330neos, and 25 A350s. The 350s will likely, for the most part, replace the 747 routes in the pacific, maybe some transatlantic, that leaves 35 A330-300s and A330neos. As for the 330 having the most seat density, maybe, but don't forget, we still have 18 B777s, 10 of which were delivered post merger, so they are relatively new air-frames and will be in the fleet for many more years, as well as 21 relatively new 767-400ERs.
