As far as an airline goes, Delta runs a much bigger average jet than their bretheren. Delta has a fleet dominated with 757s, 767s with a healthy but seemingly relatively small number of 727s and 737s through the fleet. Their competition have A319s/320s and 737s scatter amongst their fleet. I don't think anyone else flies the 757 and 767 in the quantity that Delta does.
