What is not speculation is that Delta was sold a bill of goods on the 739. We will have 47 total ETOPS birds when all are delivered, and they are incapable of flying any ETOPS routes reliably with a full load of customers. Someone should get fired over that deal.
Hawaiian is already flying A321NEOs to the best coast.
AA flies A321CEOs LAX to various Hawaiian markets.
