As of November 2015, the Delta Air Lines mainline fleet comprises 803 aircraft in service. Prior to the merger with Northwest Airlines in 2009, Delta Air Lines operated an all-Boeing and McDonnell Douglas fleet, but incorporated Northwest's Airbus aircraft into its fleet following the merger. ==Current fleet== Delta operates the largest fleets of the Boeing 717, the Boeing 757, the Boeing 767, and the McDonnell Douglas MD-90 of any operators worldwide. Two of Delta’s MD-90s were assembled at Jiangwan Airfield in Shanghai.〔https://www.planespotters.net/airframe/McDonnell-Douglas/MD-90/60001/N964DN-Delta-Air-Lines〕〔https://www.planespotters.net/airframe/McDonnell-Douglas/MD-90/60002/N965DN-Delta-Air-Lines〕 In early 2011, Delta began to discuss narrowbody replacement plans for the DC-9s, older A320 and 757-200 aircraft with manufacturers Airbus, Boeing and Bombardier. On August 25, 2011, Delta ordered 100 Boeing 737-900ER aircraft for delivery between 2013 and 2018 as it retires older mainline jets and upgrades its fleet. The new aircraft are intended to improve the company's profitability. On May 22, 2012, Delta agreed to sublease 88 AirTran Boeing 717 aircraft from Southwest Airlines. Delta began refurbishing all domestic and two class regional jets with Economy Comfort seats in 2012. All international aircraft already received Economy Comfort in 2011. On September 4, 2013, Delta ordered 10 Airbus A330-300 HGW for fleet expansion and 30 A321s. On June 2, 2014, Delta ordered an additional 15 A321 aircraft. Delta Air Lines officially retired its DC-9s from mainline services on January 6, 2014, but were used on a needed basis until January 22. On November 20, 2014, Delta ordered replacements for its Boeing 747-400 and 767-300ER jets. The 50-jet order was split between 25 Airbus A330-900neos and 25 Airbus A350-900s.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=DELTA ADDS A350-900, A330-900NEO TO ITS FLEET PLAN )〕 On June 10, 2015, Delta announced it would acquire 20 used Embraer E190 and order 40 new Boeing 737-900ER upon pilot ratification of tentative agreement.〔http://news.delta.com/2015-06-10-Delta-to-acquire-20-Embraer-E190s-and-40-new-737-900ERs-upon-pilot-ratification-of-tentative-agreement〕 However, on July 15, 2015, Delta cancelled the orders after pilots rejected the tentative contract proposal.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=CEO confirms jet order cancellation )〕 The following table represents Delta Air Lines mainline fleet types and layouts in service as of October 27, 2015.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Delta Air Lines Fleet )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Delta Air Lines fleet」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
