Wow! The 757s to be replaced by the 738! quite a drop in capacity on short-medium haul from 235 to 189? Thats quite a drop and what a turn around as it was the earlier 737-200 which Britannia replaced with the much larger 757, citing a much higher demand in seat capacity for the future of short haul. Also what about the peak Palmas in summer, TFS in winter, will these one day be 787 routes, the 767 was always needed here for these runs due to needing a large capacity aircraft for the PMI and TFS etc. Will these only see 189 seat aircraft in the future? huge drop from a 757/767 to a 738? Same as tui did at Hapag, dropped the huge 310 for 738 short haul
