United was faced with a similar dilemma. They pivoted immediately. Alaska did not. 3 words have never been so costly.
United is your AS equivalent?
Delta/United/American - Boeing/Airbus
Southwest - single fleet
Alaska - single fleet (pre HAL)
Frontier - single fleet
Spirit - single fleet
Avelo - single fleet
Allegiant - single fleet
Breeze - single fleet aiming as of mid 2026
Sun Country - single fleet
The only exception is JetBlue with A220 and A320, but note Airbus only, no Boeing.

They’ve already given a heads up on the future. Based on the recent public comments, it’s a safe bet that long term this place is headed to be a 737 and 787 airline.
