Off the top of my head, I believe it's CO, US, UA, DL, AA in terms of fleet age.
UA's average age is some 4 years older than CO's. So mixing the fleets together only adds about 2 years to the average.
Good point. I don't know the number of planes each airline has. My personal expearience on UA is that the Airbus's are great and the Boeing's are old. Also noticed on one of my UA Express flights the place was super new and on the other it looked like it had been flying for 70 years. Guess it is hit and miss.
