United Adds 10 Europe-Asia Destinations With A321XLR Jets From Newark
3 articles · Updated · Bloomberg · Aug 25
Summary
United will launch 10 new destinations next year, using Airbus A321XLR aircraft to extend long-haul service from its Newark, New Jersey, hub.
The new flying targets strong US leisure demand for overseas trips, letting United profitably serve thinner international routes with long-range narrow-body jets.
Luxembourg, Marseille, Ibiza and Valencia are among the cities named, with the A321XLR central to opening secondary European markets.
The move broadens United’s long-haul network in Europe and Asia and deepens its strategy of adding less traditional international destinations.
