The 350 is nice, the 1000s we are getting are really good and very capable (moreso than the -900), but I wish we hadn't had that tiff with BA a few years ago and had gotten 78s instead. We've just ordered some, but those are a ways out as you know. Everything comes full circle I guess.
Again congrats on the shiny new toys
right now they are growth. The 787s we are receiving this year have a huge Polaris cabin so there is quite litterally nothing in our fleet like it to replace.
In a year or 2 the 767s will start to go and then the 777s. All signs point right now to an all 787 WB fleet with a 20 plane sub fleet of 777-300
