This isn't JV it is Star Alliance. This has been allowed for a long time. Still, I wish it were us.
The 787-10 starts showing up soon. It is a 12 hour airplane. I wouldn't be surprised to see an ORD and or EWR 787 base. Europe and SA flying. It is a great replacement for the early 777's lUAL bought. It is their natural replacement.

Remember, the A350 order was supposed to replace the early 777's. The oldest of which was built in 1994. If someone were to ask me, a good replacement for the 777's would be a new 777.

Don't be surprised if some, or all, of the 787-10 orders get deferred.

The UA configurations on the 772 range from 266-364. I doubt a new airplane will be outfitted like the current 777As are - The Old UA Business class seat which is 2-4-2 config. But, if you take the Singapore 787-10 seat map (334 seats) and put in the Old UA Business seat instead of the Singapore Business seat, Id imagine you'd get pretty close to 360. If not, also consider that the 777A has 3-4-3 in coach and the Business Cabin does not extend aft of the 2L/R doors. I don't have info on the area of the seating cabins, but I think they're very close. All depends on how they want to configure the plane.

It is not a total loss......SFO - AKL is now going year around with this announcement.
Previously we were seasonal and during the summer NZ flew daily and 3 times weekly. Now NZ is only daily and UA is taking over the 3 times weekly flight year around.
doesn't help ORD pilots .......
