I’m just kind of losing track of actual numbers. Since some news reports are repeats, or the reporting method misleads people to think more orders have taken place when in reality just a benchmark in the acquisition process has been reached.

My scoreboard says: 37 A321 New Engine Option (neo) in service

135 A321neo are on order

50 A321XLRare on order

Which makes 222.

Are these 40 A321neo inclusive of this or in addition to and now the count should be 262?
That would make United Airbus fleet larger than that of JetBlue’s
Makes you wonder how they will handle the XLR global category. Will it be like CLE/MCO are currently for the 73? Like DCA and EWR would be global, but IAH and DEN aren't? Curious to see how it turns out.
