Any idea if EWR-GVA has seen any of the retrofitted 763s? Flying the route next month, but I'm thinking my chances are low as the seatmap has always been the B/E Diamond seatmap for the sUA 763s, not a 3-class version...

The remaining 3 3-cabin 763s are mostly operating ORD-LHR-ORD these days with some random IAH flights before/after line maintenance visits.

Just announced. 25 more E75’s to start delivery in 2019, and 4 789’s to deliver in 2020. 789’s being delivered with Polaris, which gives a bit of hope that UA will retrofit them after the 772/763 are done.

UA clearly likes the 789, not that this was ever in doubt. this order also doesn’t exactly increase the chances we see a cseries/A220 order, unfortunately. i would speculate that this will be the only UA order announced this week (farnborough + wednesday’s earnings call), aside from perhaps a deal for a few used aircraft. it sounds like boeing will have no significant NMA/797 announcement at farnborough.

Does that mean more F seats? Or more E+?

probably worthy of its own thread. the E75 (boeing and embraer officially announced their intent to merge today) will be limited to 70 seats, per the pilot contract. anything over 70 and they would have to be flown by mainline pilots.

The renegotiation in 2018/2019 will be contentious me thinks and seemingly the 2 sides have already started lobbying to the press and the american public and air industry (at least those that care) for support.

As a 1K, I'm certainly in favor of more F seats. It does lead to a strange situation where the E75s will have more F seats than the 319s and 320s.

I have to imagine UA is hoping for some scope relief with this order. There's no obvious way to take 6 seats out of the current E75 configuration besides going to 6/64, which would make pretty much the whole plane E+.

738:
N77296 - I flew on the aircraft last night and can confirm that it has DTV, WiFi, and PDE. It's currently listed as likely on the fleet site. N37298 is almost assured to be in the same setup.

They already have more F seats than the A319 -- easily my least favorite UA aircraft, non-CR2 category -- and the same number as the A320 and 73G.

The E175 isn't wide enough for that to work, though. So, you've got 6/64, or something like 18/52 (turn 3 rows of Y into 2 rows of F -- net reduction 6 seats). Neither of those makes a ton of sense -- the 12/64 configuration was already a concession to get them down to 76 seats.
