Sure am glad we have some options at UAL

Sounds like 777's moving to EWR and -400's moving to IAD. But read how you want.

Long term, perhaps, but the posted document that shows the international destination fleet assignments does not reflect an immediate increase in 777 operations in EWR.

Speculation on my part but maybe after the 777-300ERs arrive?????

From IAD? I doubt it... Reading the tea leaves looks like they are just going to consolidate the two 767 fleets on east coast... 300s to EWR and 400s to IAD... Nothing to do with 777 flying.

Y'all don't want to go to EWR777. The base sucks. Flying sucks. Plane sucks. Follow that 764 down to IAD.
