my bad... DFW LIM is already operating and shows a 757.

The difference between DL's performance on ATL-BSB and ATL-MAO is striking; MAO and the NE cities were dependent solely on connections at ATL whereas BSB is a fairly large connecting hub for G3 which allows DL to sell seats thruout Brazil via BSB.

The 737-700 also has better hot high performance than the -800 or the -900. I recall they were intially purchased just for a couple of Latin Am routes that were too low capacity demands to warrent using the 757 hot rod. Also I think the -900 are going to be ETOPS.

Here are the codes SWA uses

737-800-------73H------175 seats (only a few that are NOT ETOPS)
737-800-------738------175 seats ( ETOPS)
737-700-------73W------143 seats
737-300-------73C------143 seats



737-300 are going thru retro fit to go to EVOLVE
