About 90 75s are staying with all new interiors. Some for long range (16f/152y) and most in a high density configuration for domestic/Hawaii (20f/179y).
All of the 320s & 319s are staying with new interiors planned. 319s are getting avod. 319s go to 12f/120y, the 320s go to 16f/144y.
777s go to 37f/254y.
738s get a quick refurb too.

73 School house rumors are about 30 757's now slated for retirement. Since they have little capex they can stay as the economy demands the capacity. Flying getting upgauged RJ>Douglas>A320>737. The 737 seems to be getting quite a few shorter domestic legs and IMHO the 900 might be trans con capable, but it functions better east & west coast.
To the best of my knowlege the 737' s are all ETOPS capable. It just depends on if management wants to spend the money on maintaining them to that certification. I've heard nothing about Hawaii, other than I'd expet we would buy that airline before Alaska.
There was a good article on the Asia flying posted here a couple of weeks back. The anticipated trend is overflying Japan ... one stop out of SEA and to a lesser extent, LA.
No good SEA 737 rumors, but, I think we will need something to increase feed there.

I've done multiple legs DTW to West Coast with a completely full 900. Never had any issues...except we always start out around 280-300 - go up to 340ish about 1/2 way.
Question: I'm considering a move to the San Diego area, but I'm just a few numbers too junior to hold LAX. My TravelNet research is telling me that it's actually easier to commute to DTW than SLC, which will be important to a guy standing reserve in either base.
That said, am I missing something? In the experience of those of you who have actually done it, is it easier to commute to DTW than SLC out of the So Cal airports?

Whoa... that's gotta be L O U D. Should be interesting to watch in the summer as the temps creep up and the T-storms brew. Perfect plane for the East Coast to FL markets though. I guess I'm surprised they'd fly it at all on the near transcons. It seems like a better fit on the ATL to FL markets where there are still a lot of '57's.
