Back in the day, IIRC, NW was among first to order the DreamLiner (ANA launch customer, CO launch N. American customer). pmUA came along a little later IIRC, splitting the order between 787 and 350.
Now to the point - post merger DL did not want 787s, deferred at first, but actually cancelled relatively quick - of course they had the luxury of Boeing's delays (those by many accounts really hurt CO who bet big time on DreamLiner).
Who knows what the penalty was, but DL did not want this plane for some reason, and IIRC just a few years ago again rejected it in favor of A330 NEO.

I think there is a typo on the fleet site. Under the 77W, plane number N2534U, it has the wrong configuration, should have Premium Economy setup.

I had colored the PE units and mistakenly colored N2534U by mistake. It has not received PE and verified by seat maps.

My guess is that UA is waiting for Boeing to formally launch/offer the NMA (aka 797), rumored to be at the June air show in France. Then UA can negotiate for a large order of 777Xs and 797s. I too believe the A350 will be cancelled -- maybe in exchange for some number of A320neos and/or A321neos.

16J would be a significant downgrade from 28J now, especially considering UA is adding more J seats on the 763 and 319/20, with how premium the p.s. routes are (and full J is) I would find it hard to believe UA decreases seat counts in J.

Going 16J would be an AA-style revenue blunder of epic proportion.

True, but they also have been using a number of widebodies on the premium transcon routes to back-fill.

We are growing our premium cabins from New York to LA and San Francisco. It's really important for us.
As far as configuration of a planned MAX10, I've heard rumors of a p.s. replacement configuration in addition to a standard domestic layout, but no word on cabin size for the premium variant. There's also speculation that the Thompson Vantage Solo direct aisle access herringbone seat (optimized for a narrowbody cross-section) will be used.

UAX Update
CR2:
The final ExpressJet deal shows only 16 CR2s being operated by EV instead of the original 20. All 16 already in service.
N857AS has transferred back to Skywest from ExpressJet (still flying for UAX)
ER4:
N847HK (2004 build) entered the UAX fleet with TransStates. Should be in new TSA livery. This should be the last AX ERJ addition.
