Why does VA have the sub-fleet of B737-700?
Are there better economics from operating it, compared to the B737-800? I’d guess not, as likely similar fuel cost and fixed charges (t-o, landing, enroute), but less pax contributing revenue.
Are they owned outright and so VA just keep flying them rather than taking on new leases?
Is it just because they got a good deal when acquiring them?
