We will have a fleet of 787 before it’s all said and done is my prediction. The 767 fleet is the first to retire out of the wide bodies. Delta wanted the 797 but that’s way far away. Delta could use the 330-900 as a bargaining chip to Boeing saying we are just going to order more of those and you have nothing in the works to match it unless you give us a deal on 787
The assembly line of the 787 is not as full as it once was in the mid 2020s either

Exactly. Delta seems to get 10 years or more out of an airplane when they redo the interiors - so they are just re-did the 777 and starting on the 767-400. Then the A330 is in the pipeline I believe. I haven't seen any information about the 767-300ER being done.
I would doubt the 777 fleet is going away anytime soon. I suspect the 767-300 will be out of the picture by 2025 though, if they don't redo those interiors.

Sounds like something we would do.
But according to flightaware the distance from lax-syd is 7700 miles, dtw-pvg on DAL 350 is 8500, so why cant it do sydney?
Ewr-bom comes up at 7800.
At least according to flightaware.
