Yes, This is an increase of RJ reductions. It is a large one at that. Originally they were parking 25-35 not it is near 70. Any guesses where it will come from? I would say express jet in LAX, some CMR and a few other odds and ends.

Of note the 15-20 Main line jets are still up in the air. We will be parking some 88. The 757's leases are up and we are working on new leases. If we can get them they will not be parked. Also, some of these air frames are being "parked" as operational spares or going through heavy checks. With all of the cabin upgrading that is going on they wanted to trim the schedule to get more done.
Long term I believe that DAL will be on top. We are really making decision for the next ten years and not the next six months.
