The devil is in a the details. We (pilots) don’t, can’t, and never have made fleet decisions. With partners flying A 380s and 777-300s our role will be in airplanes smaller than those. We can’t control partners’ fleets either, they have large WBs yet to be delivered. The 797 and large narrow bodies are what I see us getting as replacement and measured growth so we don’t ruin our pricing power with overcapacity.
