United renewing its fleet


United Airlines has announced orders for 110 aircraft, due to be delivered from early 2028 onwards. The US carrier has converted options and purchase rights into firm orders for 50 Boeing B787-9s, due between 2028 and 2031, and 60 Airbus A321neos, due between 2028 and 2030. The company also secured new options for up to 50 more B787s, and purchase rights for an additional 40 A321neo aircraft at the end of the decade.

 

The B787-9s on order offer 60 t of belly-hold cargo capacities, which will allow the Chicago-based airline to further simplify its international fleet. United is already the largest carrier across the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. The airline now has 150 Boeing B787s on firm order – more than any other airline. (ah)
