I'll take your word for it as your memory is probably better than mine.

Oops, the investor guidance shows 2 A332s coming in the 4th quarter of this year. Since we're halfway through that, I assume that there will be 1 and possibly 2 A332s still coming. Recall that Airbus couldn't deliver 1 to US while the government was shut down - the FAA folks who issue registration numbers weren't working - so that may have slowed down the rest of the deliveries but I doubt it since the production line was still going normally.

Mod note:

If you'd like to discuss the US-AA merger, we have a dedicated thread for that here:
http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/us-ai...eave-star.html

Fleet stats for both US and AA can easily be found here (thanks to the AA mods for putting this together, please PM one of them if you see errors):

Let's keep the focus of this thread on the new 2014 US route PHL-EDI.

Thanks.

I'm guessing this will be one of the 757s with Envoy. Is the hard product the same on the EDI as it is on the Glasgow flight? Angle-flat seats? AVOD?

The 757 hard product is not angled lie flat like on the 767 fleet. It's the old Envoy seats that reclined nicely with a foot and leg rest. The AVOD is a portable unit the F/A's hand out after take off.

Thanks. Does the US 763 have AV in the seatbacks or do they use the portable players also?

Yes, it still exists. I think that I hear they are doing very well. I think they will keep it for a very long time.

Yes, they just did. They flew it before, but they tried. They didn't work out very well.

US doesn't have any 763s; they are 762s and use portable players that clip in to the seat in C and main cabin entertainment in Y. The interiors were completely redone a couple years ago so they are in good shape.

This makes Dublin a lot more attractive as a destination for me, from both the standpoint of burning miles or cash fares.
