I suspect that new interiors mean the aircraft is staying for the foreseeable. It looks like any new aircraft will be for growth and hopefully to allow more operational spares.

As with the poster above I suspect much of the fleet suffered from lack of preventative maintenance in the period running up to and during the examinership. My experience suggests that any aircraft in the fleet is equally likely to go tech, the -500s are as bad and they are much newer.
