Boeing must have given them a great deal on the 700. Just seems that the 800 varient at the 150 seat capacity would be a better choice. Same 5 crew staffing. Is it the fuel efficiency that makes adding this new varient to the fleet justified? Just seems odd to add a new aircraft to the fleet when you already have the 800 as a standard.
