Thanks.
Currently we have 50ish 200's and 80ish 900's.
Delta as a whole is maxed out on "large" RJ's (700/900) due to scope. Current plan is to continue (re)growing the 200 fleet to top out in the 70 aircraft range. That being said there's plenty of uncertainly as to when and from where exactly.
We were very very close to adding 20+ 700's last spring. The DCI carrier who possessed them was able to make a last minute deal.
9E is part of an multi-year plan for DL. Any other information regarding fleet growth is 100% speculation.
