We have 100 737's arriving to replace the 757's. in addition 25 of the 757's that are planned to be retired are all ready parked and not in revenue service. If Delta purchase 40 additional airframes via the two new RFP's we will put into service over 240 airframes in the next 4 years. We also hold options for 30 more 737's. the fleet plan has us parking 85 757's in that period. There will be some A320's parked in Addition to the 757's however the net gain in airframes should be around 130 hulls. That number includes the 90's not yet in service.
What growth flying would the growth jets be doing?
sorry 76, I couldn't resist.
Question what is the baseline by which we measure something as growth?

There is nowhere left to expand to. We've done gone and codeshared/JV'ed our international growth out of existence.
If ALPA gets its way, we'll outsource our heavy international growth, and take our Williston-MSP x15/day on the 717/739 for a COLA -1.2% contract (along with the usual givebacks, of course). Say it with me: "Obamacare exchange." And we'll like it.
Because "that's what the survey said" we wanted.
For MD 90 numbers, as of the official fleet count on April 1, 54 of a planned 65 were in service.
Which is why you as a union seek an exemption, like the IRS's own National Treasury Employees Union, NTEU. Otherwise you have to use negotiating capital to keep near status quo.
