I’m going off a google search so I could be wrong but I see
AMR - 67 777s/35 787s. 950 total
DAL - 18 777s/9 A350s. 871 total
UAL - 90 777s/37 787s. 748 total
DAL has a HUGE number of NB hence the crazy junior NB CAs. UAL is a substantially higher number of WBs so our WB FO goes very junior.
I purposely left out other WB like 767 and A330s because although our -400s pay top rate, others don’t and it’s a small percentage of our fleet.
AA has 24 A330s which lay the same as 777/787. They are also replacing 31 767s with 787.
So about 150/950 airplanes will pay the highest rates.
