Certainly sounds like we are all in with Airbus.
Good points. A350 fleet has now been expanded so Delta no longer has 2 small subfleets of widebodies. Now the big question is, with the retirement of the ER imminent, will Delta continue to go all Airbus? IMO, I don't think they will remain dependent on a single manufacturer for widebodies and a large 787 order will be placed within the next 6 months
