YEah BABY, some good news from someone other than SWA!!!!!!

I thought the 767-200's were pretty new? It would be a shame to lose them.

They are but the problem is that they only carry 174 paxs. A 787 is estimated to carry twice as much with the same cargo capacity. In addition, we only have 10 of that type. It would not be too difficult to dispose of the 767-200 as we own 9 of the 10. Didn't DAL sell a few 767-200's to ABX last year for cargo coversion?
