Delta to announce A321neo order

It's an amazing plane, I was very surprised to see the fuel flow figures leveling off in cruise even at heavy weights. The 321NEO is really advanced, IMO Boeing is a day late and a dollar short with their MAX 8/9/10 program.
 
I was wondering if the order might go Boeing in a compromise of sorts to end the C-Series dispute but I guess not. Glad it's Airbus (assuming this is correct) and we'll still win the tariff dispute anyway to get those C-Series on property sooner than later.

I thought we’d throw Boeing a bone and split the order, but guess not. Hope you’re right about the C-Series....

Probably too big of a plane to fit Southwest's needs. But United has 737-10's on order, so I heard.

The real question here is how many are going to be 321LR's. In a number of markets, that plane is going to be a 757 replacement.

Yeah but the PW's still seem to have major issues. I think more than half of NK's are grounded still due to engine issues. That said, on takeoff you can barely hear the things spooling up.

That explains the engineless taped up NEO that Spirit has parked at DFW.
