I agree, OO has never furloughed but the circumstances are much different. Looking at the TSA throughputs, the country is running less than ~30% of what we were last year. Nearly 50 million Americans out of work and that number is growing. This pestilence has slowed the world down tremendously...unprecedented.

Hope for the best, prepare for the worst.

How many Delta 200s are getting pulled off this year?

I thought they were pulling closer to 50 DL 200s offline. But also (hopefully) adding 45 or so 175s in the next 12 or less months for AA, UA and DL.

As someone else smarter than me pointed out, if all goes as planned we hopefully can be of equal size or at most, a net loss of 5 airplanes overall once the ERJs hit the line.

This can and likely will change a bit at the earnings call however.
