My guesses:
Back to rolling schedules at LAX, DFW and ORD.
Maybe scaling back some seasonal and non seasonal european flights from PHL and CLT.
There already seems to be some cross fleeting now, perhaps more 738 in clt and phl and LUS A321 at DFW and ORD.

Thanks, as always, Jon! Fingers crossed this will lead to at least a few misconnects with more advantageous rebooking options.

There's been rumblings that PHX is going to become a 738 pilot base and crossfleeting on certain routes with the 738 is already taking place. I wouldn't be shocked at all to see a number of narrowbody Airbus routes out of PHX go 738. Obviously that means those Airbuses(Airbi?) will have to go somewhere else, probably to one of the LAA hubs.
