Not a comment on this specific order, but more on Copa's overall ordering strategy. It is refreshing to find an airline that places add-on orders on an incremental basis like Copa has done over the last few years. Ordering a large add-on tranche at one time may lower your average cost, but it is not as smart from the viewpoint of refining your business' size to the optimal level.
