Hopefully this is the case because 25 doesn’t come close covering what we have parked

Right. Wasn’t it something like 180+ MD88s and 18 777’s, right? DAL has a ways to go to restore all those seats.
Still it’s nice to have new orders. An old pilot once told me the the airline model goes: profits,> planes, > pilots. Let’s hope!

Airbus makes a superior product, at least from the passenger and commercial pilot end, and it’s no longer even close.(Your mileage may vary).
Interesting change of direction from a company known for at least a decade for grabbing the “low hanging fruit” (717s). Maybe the rumored “fire sale” of the MAXes didn’t materialize?

While Airbus definitely has an slight edge right now in the narrowbody market Boeing has a significant edge in the Widebody market with the 787 and 777 programs. Nearly every airline wants the 787 with its long backlog while Airbus has the 350 going for firesale prices
