I'm sure Delta will just delay the retirement of the 757s that much longer. No big deal.
Can't imagine any 787s making their way to Delta at this point. That ship seems to have sailed long ago. A bunch of A350s, some A330s, A321NEOs, 737MAx, and A220s are the future. 717 and 757 hang out for another 10 years or until the next black swan. A350s replace the 767-3ER.

Save this post. I predict that Delta will never operate a 737 MAX 10.
No 737 MAX at all unless they acquire some currently operating ones in a fire sale from a defunct airline.
