Bastion quote from the other day “Well, we certainly have long-term needs for a wide-body aircraft. And as we've been very public, we've looked at whether we're going to continue to expand our A350 fleet or our Boeing fleet. This gives us an opportunity to expand the A350 fleet, which we have a relatively subscale amount of it, 15, today and it's right in line with our expectations.”
Certainly sounds like we are all in with Airbus.
