I wasn't a big fan of the 738's at first either but it is a nice plane. If you're used to flying 757's, then yes, you lose eight FC seats but the 738 is one of the newer planes in the DL fleet and FC is pretty comfortable.

As for the 732's, I won't miss those when they go. They are starting to show their age.
