Yeah, but check out the dates that deliveries start. 2015 for the 330s and 2016 for the 321s.

That's approximately 600 pilots worth of aircraft...

Thanks as always, Johnso! I see the article uses the words "expand" and "augment" in reference to the 330 and 321 fleets.....but, when the Delta fleet is taken as a whole, are these growth or just replacing other aircraft being parked?

Per the current fleet plan, they're growth airframes. That fleet plan is through 2017. Subject to change? Of course. But for now, they're growth.

Sure, I understand you don't have a crystal ball, at least not one that works that far out....but yeah, this sounds great! Good news for a lot of people.

Given the wording of the press release, I'd say it's most plausible that the 321s are mostly replacements and the 333s are mostly growth.
