Re: United Fleet, Network, & Livery Thread - 2020

When the 737MAX’s (not the tanscon max 10, configured with lie-flats) start arriving in significant numbers, which aircraft will they initially replace? The oldest 737-8/9? The oldest A319/20? I cannot imagine them replacing the new but used Airbuses as clearly so much was invested on their 100% ov...

Re: United Fleet, Network, & Livery Thread - 2020

Can’t see that. In normal times, UA’s schedule of 5-6x EWR-LHR was seen as light compared to DL/VS and certainly BA/AA, and consequently was not as attractive an option for heavy-hitting corporate contracts between NYC-LON. UA wouldn’t be competitive at JFK-LHR with anything less than the existing ...

Re: United Fleet, Network, & Livery Thread - 2020

One of the things I don't see anyone factoring in is this: AA is quite cleverly using their wholly owned regionals to do a substantial amount of that increased flying right now. Those are planes they own, and people whose paychecks they are on the hook for anyway. Nothing to lose. UA isn't in a pos...

Re: Rumor: American Airlines To Bring Back Seatback IFEs On Domestic Aircraft

Can they also serve hot meals on flights to Hawaii instead of Wraps? L-AA A321 Hawaii spec are not equipped with Economy galley ovens, nor are the new A321Neos.

Re: RNO-SEA/PDX

I find it interesting that Southwest restarted RNO-OAK/SJC. I wonder if they wanted a better link for their passengers that wanted to go RNO-OAK-GEG, or RNO-SJC-SEA.

Re: United Fleet Upgrade Status - 2018

If you're counting light rail access, Phoenix's Metro Light Rail runs along Washington St, which they've built a elevated rail to get from the metro station to all Terminals.
