Better to keep them, esp if they are newer
Its up to them and seems from the comment they will keep both. I think in the long run on brand of AC in there type of flying would be better.
Don't know about today but not that many years ago mechanics said that if it wasn't for engine repair on Boeing they wouldn't need so many mechanics to work on them as there airframes were built much better.

If Alaska would just use a similar interior to Virgin on their 737's, life would be grand.
Oh and transferring my miles on Virgin to Alaska would be pretty sweet too!
