Seriously, though, if they will all be out of the fleet by 2017, why even put in new J seats? is it worth it just for a few years?
Seems aggressive to retire all 58 767-300s in 3 years. Unless AA plans on receiving that many 787s or shrink their international network. Maybe the plan is to retire the non-retrofitted 763 by 2017.
