Where’s this listed? All I see is 284 NB and 48 WB on order in the DeltaNet article.

I’m sure they’ll get it right they just need a few more decades to work out the kinks in assembly….

Maybe we can order the upcoming open rotor 737 to be named the 737 Propfan Open Stage.

It's a option. I guess ALK forgot to check that box that said, "Include all bolts" when they ordered that one.

Now will they open a NYC 350 base for these new deliveries and existing -900’s? Or SLC?

Naaah. They'll keep operating A330s out of SLC while saying the 330 doesn't have the performance to open a base while continuing to operate 330s out of SLC.

But the very first delivery won’t even begin to be seen in a AE for a bare minimum of 21-24 months. Any movement between now and then is for previous orders.

It’s great news, though. 20 -1000’s with options for another 20 will be big.
Agreed on GeneralLee. What an excellent resource for the forum.

You're correct on the 21-24 months, but IMO that's not a very long time. Furthermore we still have a good amount of 339 and 359s still being delivered. Can't wait to see the 350-1000 to arrive at Delta though. It's a great looking jet and very spacious flight deck. The Triple Bogey maingear returns!

They are on back order… check your packing slip.

I wonder if they kept the crew rest in the same location on the 1000

EB said on the Earnings Call the 350-1000's are "20% more fuel efficient than the 767-300's they are replacing..."

In addition, GH just said that the 767-300's will definitely all be gone this decade, on a pretty "consistent" decline. He also seemed to say the -400 would be gone too, with it leaving international service in '28, and gone by 2030, but it was hard to follow that poorly worded question. That would be news.
