  • The mainline fleet of United Airlines is massive. With 950 aircraft at the time of this video’s production, it's just slightly smaller than the mainline fleet at American, which currently boasts 967 jets. However, all of this will change over the next few months as more new aircraft arrive at the carrier.

    I think the A350 order is smart timing. as Scott Kirby, would use the 787-10's to replace their domestic 777-200's and any domestic 777 routes. For the longer ETOPS routes, the A350's are a better replacement based off capacity and range.

      @@aaroneisengart9887 United is NOT pulling away from the Max 10. They're removing the aircraft from their schedules because they have no idea when Boeing will deliver the aircraft. There's an indication that United may cancel the Max 10 order for the A321, but Airbus will have to either cancel or push back another airline's order to fit United in. I don't see that happening.

    • @quietus13
      @quietus13 8 днів тому

      There are just not enough airplanes in the world currently. Production is far short of demand, and getting shorter due to production delays at both Airbus and especially Boeing. Any functioning airplane within its service life is worth its weight in gold for the foreseeable future.
      Comac is at least a decade away from possibly breaking into the wider airliner market, and maybe never. Many major airlines are now begging regional jet producers like Embraer to try and develop a mainline sized aircraft to help alleviate the shortage.
      In the meantime carriers that are trying to expand will just keep snapping up whatever they can get their hands on

United should retire their fleet of B737-900 & B737-700 asap, not to mention the B777-200 . . . note, Delta Airlines also operate 26 B767-400 ER which is a further stretched of the B767-300 ER . . .
