We don't know if it's because the loads are light so operationally it makes sense to simplify and operate lower cost 737s..............There's lots of 756 pilots with AV days and RSV in May, so if this is just a temporary issue of rebuilding the flying there's plenty of coverage.
It’s going to make the furlough plans much less complicated and costly, with one less fleet type. This has been tentatively planned since around the time of the first “town hall”.
We will likely come out of this with three fleet types.
