Even if they gave them away for free, no one would take them for commercial use. Not sure who would be surprised at this 'news'

They have been. The problem is twofold; Airbuses are limited in the U.S., and airlines have increased the rates on those tickets because I guess a working airplane is now considered a premium.

Despite the recent slow sales, Boeing still has a huge backlog of over 5,600 orders
