vs over 200 737NGs currently at DL

we did just order 29 737-900ERs used from lion air, but no new 220 orders in awhile.

There’s a rumor of more -220s to replace RJ feed. Not sure how true or not it is. That’d be one way of beating another airline in terms of quality though.

there were Also rumors of an imminent MAX order over the summer.

while I would love for your rumor to be true, I would put exactly 0 weight on anything not in writing. And not a whole lot of weight on it til planes actually start showing up

I keep starting the rumor of an impending 787 order everywhere I go, hoping it sticks one day...... training, 4th floor bathroom stalls, escape rope covers, etc.....

Hang on one second, escape rope cover rumors are not rumors at all. They are verifiable scientific facts! Please don't diminish their value.
