Exactly.
I saw this year's ago when the DAL network folks were still with CAL. At the time the 735 was doing IAH-BNA. 4 flights per day, nearly 100% of the time they were full. BNA folks wanted a larger jet on the route.
They got instead 4 ERJ-145s. Not 8 to maintain capcity. Just 4. They cut capacity in half. Want to fly on that route? You'll need to pay more.
We hired those folks to run the network with this mantra: determine what jet the route needs then cut that in half and that's the one you get.

Spanish LCC Volotea starts fleet rollover
Just waiting for the announcement. These deals are usually done at least 6 months ahead of the delivery date and make it easy to take their "old obsolete" aircraft off their hands.

Air Canada agrees to buy up to 75 Bombardier CS300s
Air Canada has 45 E190s the Canadian government is making them replace with C series jets. That means they still have 25 to dispose of.
Jet blue has 24 deferred orders and has been known to sell older planes as they take delivery of new ones keeping the fleet count flat.
