*Continental Airlines: The 737-800 is the mainstay of Continental's operations at SAN, but spotters may occasionally see the 737-300, 737-700, or 737-900 instead.  During peak times of the year, such as during the holidays, a few late night arrivals and early morning departures may be operated by the 757-200.

*Delta Air Lines: 737-300, 757-200, 767-200, 767-300, MD-90
*Delta Air Lines: Delta operates a varied fleet in San Diego, most of which may be seen in the old as well as current livery. Spotters may see the 737-300, 737-800, 757-200, 767-200, 767-300, and MD-90 here.  Perhaps of greatest interest are the daily 767-200 and MD-90 flights, both of which arrive after dark but which depart at approximately 9:05AM and 9:10AM respectively.  Throughout November, the "Spirit of Delta" has been making visits to SAN at least twice a week and spotters have a good chance of catching it during the morning departures.  It, along with Delta's remaining 767-200s, is scheduled to be retired in December.
