Not so much. Average age is 10 years per frame.
Those old US Airways Airbus narrowbodies that Rakesh Gangwal ordered combined with your legacy fleet of ancient widebodies and early production 737-800s weighs you down.
The recent order for 787s will help as they phase the 767s and older 777-200s out.
I just hope that the decision to push some of those 737 MAX deliveries doesn't mean the MD-80s will hang around any longer.

We still have our order for 100 B737 MAXes on the books, we’ll just be getting them a little later to avoid having more narrowbodies than we need arriving in such a tight timeframe. We are committed to this aircraft, which is already flying for American today.

the MD-80s
was a hell of a lot better member of the fleet than the scarebus, AA is down to a handfull but right now they need every seat they can put in the sky
ETA: when you factor in aircraft on order, which is what the airlines do, they are the most modern, or certainly as new as just about anybody
