777-300ER order
#11
Now we just need about 20 777-X's to fill out the 747 replacements. I still don't know if we will ever see the A350's.
Now, we could also probably get a very good deal on a dozen 747-8's for those few routes that size would work well. Maybe take 747-400's in trade. We usually give our old stuff to FedEx for a great deal, maybe they would want those.

The only problem with EWR is rotation of aircraft in a small fleet. ORD needs the 300ER because the UA 200ER are restricted on some days where as the CO 200ER do pretty well (From what I'm told) on EWR - HKG. You could use the other two aircraft for EWR - HKG but that would leave no fleet flexibility 1 CX or long delay would cause a sever downline problem to the operation and the 100+ pax that can not fit on a 200ER.
