I don't know diddly squat about the economics of the A350.
Been here long enough to know that pre RA, long haul wide bodies were being used to haul wider bodies from ATL to FL, which apparently was a ridiculous use of the airframe(?).
I can't help but notice that there are 350s currently being used for domestic travel at Delta.
Do more 350s for 3 hour flights even make sense?

The MAX 10 doesn't have the the range of the 321NEO but has more range than the 737-900. Network has previously stated the MAX 10 will mainly be deployed on longer stage lengths out of ATL, DTW and MSP. I expect West Coast to Hawaii flying and BOS transcons to be 321NEO specialities. I doubt there will be any NEO trans Atlantic flying unless Delta orders the 321XLR. All the other longer non SAQ stage lengths will likely be a mix of MAX 10 and 321NEO depending on how network wants to stage fleets for operational efficiency.
