I believe it is still standardl consolidation because the 350 isn't considered a 330 variant.

Spoiler alert: a new variant will appear. Then a variant after that. It’s a virus!!! It’s not hurricane season that has a beginning and and end. It’s transitioning from pandemic to endemic. It’ll be here forever. Like the flu, common cold, etc.
This omicron variant is making people realize that COVID isn’t killing everyone. People are still traveling. Half of my family and friends have omicron right now. Obviously mRNA isn’t the way long term. Obviously a fabric mask isn’t working.
Allllll of these people are getting Covid, and life is going on.
Delta is already behind staffing wise. My category doesn’t have 25% of the required reserves on a single day in January. Formerly known as a slow month.
But yes sailing, this is a good thing. So that when June rolls around we can “run a little hot.” Good lord.

The vicissitudes of these virus variants are quite vexing!

Someone told me (rumor mill of course, could have been from a hotel van driver) that in 2022, we are taking all the 321NEO deliveries originally schedule for 2022 plus all the deferred deliveries from 2021. In other words, delivery schedule will be caught up by end of year and basically double deliveries this year.
Our orginal pre pandemic delivery schedule was intense. 80 annual net airline deliveries, now its about 40 every year. Source, 10K 2019 vs 10k 2020.
321neo Deliveries
Original / Updated
2020: 1 / 0
2021: 41 / 0
2022: 40 / 18
2023: 18(balance) / 20
YE2022 net 321neo: 82 / 18
YE2022 net A223: 36 / 17
YE2022 net A339: 30 / 20
