There is no official word. The initial annoucement was a mix of jets. Mostly Maddogs and a few 757's plus I think one 767-300. All the jets in the annoucement have leases expiring in Aug. I heard that depending on how the negotiations go on the leases we could retire as many as 20 or as few as 0 jets. I am sure what oil does in the meantime will also have a big impact. If oil stays at 120 or more a barrel into the fall all bets are off for every airline. You will see a massive number of jets parked by everyone.
