UA Adds New 757-300 Routes From DCA
[Correction 2/4/16: FlyerTalk previously reported that the Boeing 757-300 was United’s largest aircraft. United’s Boeing 757-300 will be the biggest aircraft flying out of DCA.]
Passengers flying with United Airlines will soon be able to book tickets to fly between Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA) and Denver and San Francisco via the Boeing 757-300s. The flight to DCA will reportedly be the largest aircraft making regular trips to the airport. Up until now, the largest plane to offer service to and from DCA was Delta and American Airlines’ 757-200s.

DCA is a major DL place and they need to get with the program. Flying to DTW, ATL, and JFK, etc., is not going to be enough. Something to the west coast out of DCA and not other area airports will be a great benefit to many.
So how is that a new route?
True. Probably meant to say "carrier's largest aircraft that can use DCA".
The 757-300 isn't United's largest aircraft.
UA's largest aircraft is the 747-400. The headline and first sentence of this articlette are inaccurate.
