If UA management is looking for ways to cancel the A350 order, then I agree this could be an option.

However, UA has a large fleet of 777-200 for replacement in the next decade. 777X is too big, 787-9 too small and 787-10 does not have the range yet. A350 is actually a really nice aircraft to fly for passengers. I go out of my way to fly the A350....ironically (for this thread) my most recent A350 experience was on Ethiopian Airway. It was a fantastic flight.
