There are only 14 787-10s on order. I suspect once UA has gotten enough information on how they perform and where they fit in the system, we will see a top-up order of 78Js as well as 789s.

Really? My main thought is trying to figure out where UA is going to add all these new planes to, unless they are going to start doing many Polaris retrofits on 772s...I don’t see UA adding a whole bunch of new long/thin routes.

I'm going to be bold in stating that between the 787-10 and the 777-300ER we won't see an A350 in UA colours.

It will be interesting. My guess is IAD becomes an all-787 longhaul operation and a 787 domicile is introduced at ORD or EWR. The 787-10 isn't really ideal for longhaul TPAC but from LAX/SFO, it should be well-suited for Japan and Korea.

Surprised to see E145's coming back. Did UA hit the reduction number from the Fall Investor Report?
