Just finished up recording a podcast with Addison Schonland and Scott Hamilton on industry goings-on, including the issue of fuel hedges for Southwest and the American Airlines order.

NEW INFO: The first 787-9 for Air New Zealand will be the 88th Dreamliner out of the factory, which is currently set to be delivered in early 2012. By comparison, American Airlines will get their first 787-9 (if labor concessions are met) in September 2012. With this in mind, American should be getting one of the earlier 787-9s off the line.
UPDATE: Take a look at this video Boeing created for American!
