Don't they currently operate 767's on this route? Will those be going away?

Short answer...yes. The 767-200's are not long for this world. :frown:

B767-200's will be retired in the first quarter of next year.

As much as I love new aircraft, twin aisles are a bit more comfortable in the seat width department in my opinion. I have only flown 767s on Delta and United/Continental so not sure if the AA interiors were worse. I am happy for the business and first customers but I ride in the back unless I can freely upgrade to the front so it means nothing to me the new A321s (as a pax) LOL
