They haven't released their full newly revised fleet plan yet...but remember that their 737-700 order was upscaled and deferred to Max8s...
Wouldn't be surprised to see C-Series added mainline at UAL, and more 70-seaters as well.
United won't see a 737 Max for 3 years. American owns every delivery slot over that time.
