Key Takeaways:

United plans to grow its Airbus A321neo network this summer, including new regularly scheduled service from its Newark, New Jersey, and Washington Dulles hubs. The Chicago-based airline took delivery of its 25th A321neo back in December and now has over 30 in its fleet.

According to this week’s Cirium Diio schedule update, the carrier’s newest fleet type will operate scheduled service from Newark to Denver and Chicago O’Hare. In addition, United’s A321neos will serve Washington Dulles from Chicago and Denver.

Currently, A321neo flights on these routes are only scheduled between June and September, at least once per day.

This summer, the airline’s A321neos will operate from all its hubs.
