Could Delta Trade In Older Boeing 717s For 100 New 737 MAX Aircraft?
A report published today indicates that Delta may be working with Boeing on a deal to swap Boeing 717s for 737 MAX aircraft. First reported in The Air Current by Jon Ostrower, the deal would have Delta swap out its leased 717s and take on an order for 100 of the beleaguered Boeing 737 MAX aircraft. If this deal goes through, the ramifications are enormous. (simpleflying.com) 更多...

I certainly hope this is a story from someone’s imagination. Flew a trip back in October. First leg in a 737-900. The second leg in a 717. The 717 was far superior in every possible way that you can measure passenger comfort. I even told the FO as I exiting, “this is a great airplane. It’s a damn shame they quit making it”.
Glad to hear that atricle is mostly not true. Delta, being the only major US airline without any MAX order, dodged a bullet during the groundings and capitalized on the failure of the max and its effect on carriers. Backpedaling to the MAX just to get rid of the 717 in a time where the smaller capacity of the 717 is welcome would be a costly and stupid move on Delta's part.
yes i spelled article wrong its 1 in the morning fight me
if you had waited until 2 am, would it have been any diferant?
yes. There might've been more spelling errors.
That sucks. I don't want to fly one of those committee decision death traps. Nope... They keep finding things wrong with them. It's a disaster.
