Glad you took the time to read/respond to someone no one cares about
Thank you
It's not really an analysis.
I was just stating what the number of large WB aircraft will be given current fleets and order books. You just put in your "what ifs" while I just stuck to what is known.
If we're gonna play that game then lets.
Delta isn't number 1 in any region they serve. They aren't number 1 in asia, europe or Latin America. They can't grow much more in NYC, Seattle is not only their least profitable but least profitable of any US carrier and is about to get a whole lot worse now that the home team airline is flying a superior WB product compared to the current fleet of aging 330s to the same cities delta is flying to.
Finally, they are number 3 in Latin America without a real gateway to expand from and farming most of it out to Latam which they lost billions on without any real return.
But don't worry AUS will be just as big as DFW in 50 years.
Plus they are the only legacy without a supersonic aircraft order and have to wear hats😊 .

767's don't count. They pay the same as a 321.

Their entire personality is their job and their company. These are the kind of dudes that wear delta company merch out in public on their days off and are probably also part of some delta pilots golf team.
