At face value, the Delta statement might seem alarming. But as so often becomes the case, the “review” may not be what it seems.
Summary
  • There is more activity about fleet requirements than simply “reviewing” the wide-body orders.
  • Delta’s preparing to issue an RFP for single-aisle Airbus A321neos and/or Boeing 737-9/10s.
  • Boeing hopes Delta will be a launch customer for the MAX 10.
  • The NMA/MOM aircraft could be involved.
Wait...they're actually making a 737-10??? Is the -900 not long enough?
