The 277 planes will likely be replaced with other planes. Most likely more A-321s. If not, then we won't replace the 757 fleet and they will just keep flying until those planes can be delivered. We have 800 planes on order, and right now they are all Max 8-9s, A-321s and the 150 787 deliveries start this summer. We've already said we are only hiring 2,000 instead of 2,500 but if we can get some close in A-321s I bet we go right back to 2,500 a year again. But yes without those planes we only need to hire about 2,000 a year until 2032 when our last deliveries stop coming.
