Looks to me that some tired old birds paid their way long ago. Hopefully someone in the know can add some insight to the numbers - current profitability vs investment spend, next investment cycle etc.
Well the 747's and 767's must all be paid for and will fly until they are no longer flyable basically or during their major check where it will be uneconomical to service.
Those A319's and A320's are aging but they did refurb many of the interiors so I guess they will be around 10 more years for sure. They are also ordering new Airbii A320 group aircraft from what i remember.
