The AA 738 are likely to be MIA based due to cargo.

While the 32X are likely to be ORD and maybe US hub based.

The other reasoning for the 32X and the low config could be they still need weight for cargo, so why waste it on a Y seat. Also the way pilots are paid the A32X pilots will be paid less than the 76X pilots. I doubt they will add many more frequencies - no reason unless corporate clients need more. If they find demand for Y warrants it then they might add in the odd 757 in addition to the A321 but I would doubt it. This way they keep a consistent product for their J and C clients.

With the coming US merger (I havent read but I assume the A32X configs are similar they are likely to soon be the largest operator of A32X in the world and that commonality brings in alot of savings.

They already have 738 and for the msot they are based out of MIA
