  • 737MAX Fleet - started year with 243, 1 already delivered, will end year with 319 (75 more deliveries this year)
  • A321 Fleet (including XLR) - started year with 59, will end year with 94 (35 deliveries this year)
  • 787 Fleet - started year with 81, will end year with 101 (20 deliveries this year).
NO OTHER FLEET CHANGES (no 777 retirements planned)
Very impressive fleet delivery numbers. Averaging 1-2 Max deliveries every week and a 787 delivery almost every other week.

Love to see it to increase the odds of flying one of those planes instead of a 737 (worst plane in the mainline fleet IMO) or 767 (reliability issues).
