But note that Airbus is still after UA's heart. It intends to figure out a way to squeeze 20 more seats into the 350-1000 model -- the one that UA has ordered.

United also holds orders for 35 A350-1000 jetliners, an Airbus model sized to directly compete with the largest 777. Toulouse, France-based Airbus said this month it would aim to squeeze 20 more seats into the jet for a total of 389 in a bid to boost sales.
