newer? Or new to them? But yes 800s for cargo. I think fully paid for 700s running around with only cargo could make money. That way we can keep the older ones and up our fleet count upping our need for pilots etc.
Also no masks needed!

Not new. I think they converted 10 of their -800s to cargo. Yeah, let’s turn all of the 500ish -700s into cargo and replace them with 500ish A220-300s!

SY 738's are owned by Amazon second hand and leased to SY. New aircraft to SY certificate.

Do they have the short-field design package? SWA does not want a mixed fleet.
