Airbus whips out a whopping six aircraft per month on the 220. Boeing even with the restrictions that the FAA recently put on them pumps out 35 a month on the max. Airbus is to up the production to 15 a month by 2025. SWA isn't going to buy two airlines to get maybe half those a month. And buying those carriers, with all the other issues that it brings, just doesn't make economic sense.

Someone mentioned this before.. with a point to point network it would be bear impossible to have another fleet. You wouldnt be able to substitute one plane for another dye to many limitations. They would have to be on a dedicated route in a dedicated base and that would never happen. Not being able to reroute pilots at will would be crippling.
you cannot substitute a max 7, period.
