The A320 has a lower overall cost of Operation. Anyone get the picture now.

Maybe from the flight attendant's perspective. But, from the owner/operator/flight ops perspective, the 757-300 is cheaper to operate than the A320.

Sincerely,

I agree with that statement whole heartedly. Now another question while still retaining the original.

Boeing seems to only be in the business of building widebodies as of late. With the clear exception of the 737 which will be soon replaced. But no real talk of a new 170-200 seater jet.

The huge sales of the NG737 800-900 series kinda spelled the end of the 757 prematurely and now there is a 900ER. Is the 737 a worthy replacement for the trusty ole 757?

I say hell no.

The shame is when an interesting thread is ruined by people who have nothing to contribute.
