Agree strongly with this. We got ourselves at the front of the line for both NB and WB aircraft with what were undoubtedly smoking hot deals. Now other carriers are being forced to wait behind us for their own replacement needs, which are going to prevent them from growing much anytime soon (ex. SWA). We'd be in much more serious trouble if we didn't get to the front of the line, as we'd be choking trying to fly all those RJs we've been able to park so far.

Strangely enough, I'm kind of glad deliveries have slowed down because I'm not so sure we could absorb that many airplanes that fast. We are probably paying a premium now for the extra 321s we are getting... but the extra compensation we are likely getting from Boeing probably mitigates a lot of it. And the 321 is going to be a much better airplane for premium transcon service than the Max-10.
