Rumor is we have agreed to order more 787-9’s. Those along with the 20(?) -8’s we already have will replace the 767/330 fleets in the coming years. We have 58 787 options left, I would expect a majority of those will be firmed up as orders to replace the 55(?) airplanes currently making up 767/330 fleet. I would guess the -10 will be looked at to replace older 772’s as well based on how well they perform. 100 787’s would be nice and provide a lot of fleet reliability as far as basing/crewing options across the system.

Boeing must have cut a heck of a deal to get us out of the A350 commitment!
