Today, United placed an order for up to 200 Boeing 787s - the largest order in program history. This deal is great news for Boeing, but it's just as bad for Airbus who now seems poised to lose United's business #shorts

@johnhaller5851 Жыл бұрын
I think the 777X is too big for US carriers. It's the same reason no US carrier ordered the A380. The operators of the A380 are all single hub airlines. Most US carriers which fly internationally have several hubs with different demands. The US airlines have heavily optimized their operations to maximize utilization of these airplane to both fly into and out of their US hubs during the day when they can connect to domestic destinations, as well as arrive internationally at times when they can connect with alliance airlines. This may mean a SFO->Frankfurt plane may return to Newark, where it can leave again on the same day to Europe. But, unless all routes can supply a full 777X of traffic, it makes more sense to operate multiple 787 than have a few unique 777X which are difficult to utilize. This doesn't matter as much to someone like Emirates, as all their flights are out and back, and connections all happen in Dubai. They can utilize different size airplanes with their out and back, and can use the bigger planes on thicker routes. The 777X makes sense here, where they can get scale on routes.

Continental has always had a strong relationship with Boeing. I worked for Continental for over a decade Since the days when Gordon Bethune ran the company, and he was the Boeing guy in charge of the 757 development if memory serves, they’ve ordered Boeings.

@@jemand8462 It's not a matter of whether they can; it's a matter of whether they *should* as the original comment said, "Airbus should just cancel their a350 order with united." Of course Airbus can cancel the order, but why would they do that when they stand to gain nothing? Airbus isn't the one who wants to cancel - United is. By delaying delivery to 2030 and beyond, United is buying time for negotiations with Airbus and RR to avoid breaking the contract and losing money. So from a business standpoint, Airbus is better off not doing anything and letting United figure it out. If United doesn't cancel, Airbus keeps the order and wins. If United initiates the cancellation, Airbus still gets paid a good amount of money and wins. But if Airbus initiates the cancellation, they get nothing. The Qatar situation is different. Airbus was tired of dealing with Qatar and cancelled their orders to avoid having to deal with them again.
