they are all in good year. They are being ferried to MCO for the updates then back to GYR. They will all be ready to fly the day we turn the plane back on.

Fantastic, I’m not a 737 guy but the more airframes the better.

The vaccine was a joke meaning the software is being updated on these birds.

FT update now says not to expect the Max10 until late 2023. With the A321xlr’s supposedly showing up in 2024, I wonder if that is when the 756 gets phased out. It’s also going to be interesting to see what happens to the UAX fleet. I’m thinking that Kirby was blowing smoke about the 50 seaters being a thing of the past. They seem fairly set against something like the A220 and the additional 175’s that they would allow, so I’m guessing that the United recovery plan is just to continue what we had. If that is the case, I’ll be buying tickets on Delta instead of the home team when we have to travel. To get to the places that I want to go on United means 2 legs on rj’s while a ticket on Delta means a mainline aircraft.

Thank your management for providing a better product. I could buy a ticket on United and enjoy a 2 hr flight on a E175 and then connect to a 2 hr flight on a CRJ 200, or I can spend the same money on the competition and ride on an A319 and a B717. It’s a pretty easy choice.
