The introduction of the NEO should improve things for the 320 while likely having very negative consequences for the 7ER. Furthermore, if Delta introduces the MAX to the fleet the 7ER fleet's longer stage length flights will virtually be limited to 767 international and specific routes that require 757 performance (St. Thomas, Quito, Tegucigalpa etc)

Brave New World. Ironically after yelling at the top of their lungs for years about being RJ flying inhouse Mainline pilots are finally getting their wish but now are in an uproar about the schedules.
