They could take 30-40 used A319/A320 aircraft. This is rumors, UA is in negotiations. They will have a deal. If they acquired 30-40 used A319/A320 aircraft.

Does it drive anyone else’s OCD through the roof that 739 N72405 doesn’t have Scimitars... is that gonna happen or will it forever be the red headed stepchild of the 739 fleet... I know this post makes me look crazy

I show N36269, last non-slimline 739 also w/o scimitars. Rest of NG complete. That's 327 of 329 complete. There was an exit flight set for N78438 from RFD with slimlines, but it cancelled yesterday - N36269 looked like it would enter RFD as it was sked in ORD yesterday, then flights added to soldier on with old seats.

763:
N664UA entered MIA 2699/2Nov

772:
N206UA entered XMN 2776/2Nov

I’m sad to report that Air Wis is bringing at least 50, possibly up to 65. Ugh!
