The -10 can only do 3,100 NM range? Please someone tell me this is a joke |

It doesn't need crazy range, UAL wants the Max 10 for a Domestic Premium Service product. They will have lie flats and will be used on Trans-cons. Think EWR/JFK/IAD - SFO/LAX

Not personally a MAX fan myself, but I will say it's pretty quiet inside, especially in the first 5 or so rows.... noticably quieter than an NG or CEO airbus. I wonder if it'll be nicer than the coffin lie flat on the old 777s.

sure, but it’s still a single aisle 737 (versus 76, 330/350/777). Also likely louder.
United is not the only airline rolling out lie flat products on narrow bodies and will not be the last to offer a premium service domestic product… Also 757/767 aren’t quiet jets neither…. The Max also isn’t loud airplane unlike the NGs…. |

United bid for a second daily SFO-DCA instead of adding LAX-DCA. I guess those customers can go fly Delta or American or Alaska… |

But not LAX-DCA because United does not fly that, for some reason…

These SFO-DCA flights literally connect the center of tech money to the center of power in the US. :D |
