New-Jet Decision
Anderson reiterated plans to make a decision on a narrow- body jet order before the end of this year, probably sometime between the Labor Day and Thanksgiving U.S. holidays.
Delta has said it plans to order 100 to 200 planes, plus options for 200 more, with deliveries starting in 2013. The company’s fleet had been mostly Boeing Co. (BA) airplanes until the 2008 purchase of Northwest Airlines added Airbus SAS jets.
