I agree with you but they don't have pay today for a plane they would get today. They should order today the planes they will need in 5-10 years.
The order backlogs are very long it, except for the 747-8, so they need to hurry up and get a good delivery slot, otherwise it will take ages before receiving anything with 2 wings and at least 300 seats.
