United drops $1.08B Airbus Order
United drops $1.08 Billion worth of Airbus orders. (www.bloomberg.com) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
Probably more Blance Sheet driven than anything given the age of the orders.
These orders have been deferred for more than 10 years. Nothing to see here.
Not sure why they would have ordered those in the first place...
This doesn't appear to affect the A350 orders UAL has.
Though this does appear to follow through with COA's order for the B737s, while dropping the UAL order for the A319/A320s.

I would think that they wouldn't ever give up delivery slots of either the 787 or the A350. In a short period, there will be a profitability chasm that separates those airlines that fly the new planes in quantity from those that don't.
As a constant domestic United traveler, all I can hope for now is anything other than the dreaded 37,700,800,&900 / the seats in front are just horrible and the loading takes a lifetime. The 320's & 19's are more comfortable without a doubt. I cannot say this about the much loved 57's but today the irony is I am more comfortable and actually will chose a Embraer 175 over any domestic United aircraft. Quiet, best seat in front or back and they load quickly and recover faster when delays occur. It's bass ackwards but true!
