United

United CEO Scott Kirby said the carrier will “continue to hire based on merit” during a Q&A with reporters at the end of last week’s earnings call.

In 2025, United says it expects to take delivery of 71 narrowbody and 10 widebody aircraft, down from previous plans of 100 new jets this year.

Flight 613 returned to Lagos where four passengers and two flight attendants were evaluated for minor injuries, the airline said.

After nearly eight years without any flights, SkyWest and United will be bringing air service back to a small city in New Mexico.

United leadership is still betting on the 737 MAX 10 variant despite ongoing manufacturing and delivery delays at Boeing.

Even as the White House makes sweeping changes within the DOT and FAA, Kirby continues to hope for improvements in air traffic control constraints.

United has scheduled its long-awaited new service from Tokyo to Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia, which was first announced in October.

Aircraft maintenance technicians represented by the Teamsters Union are continuing contract negotiations with United Airlines this week.

Many U.S. airlines have hinted at more moderated hiring numbers in 2025 following the record-setting post-COVID numbers.

United’s Washington to Bozeman flight previously held the No. 1 spot. This summer, though, the nearly 1,800-mile route will be operated by Airbus A319s.
