Could be they are being painted then but I think a higher likelyhood is that they will be gone. So a 10 airplane reduction there, could contribute to the recent cancellation of airbus classes.
From the recently published SEC 10-K filing, page 53, under fleet count, "The expected fleet counts at December 31, 2018 and 2019 are subject to change. We intend to reduce the capital investment spend driven by fleet counts above, specifically in 2018, 2019 and 2020, which may require deferral of certain aircraft deliveries." Also, they have quietly dropped LAX-MCO, SFO-FLL, SFO-MEX as well as some CPA flying in the coming months. Watch their actions, not their words.
