Could be both Airbus and Boeing get orders, as AA pits them against each other to try to get best pricing. Buying both lets AA replace their oldest 737s and A319/20s without the expense of retraining pilots of each to a new type.

Funny how people in the comments actually think the passenger seats are part of the aircraft type. Newsflash, the PAX seats are selected by the airline not the aircraft manufacturer, you can also sit in a 737 with terrible seats.

Seats are not picked by the manufacturer but by the airline. You're avoiding a plane type instead of particular airlines out of ignorance.
