UNITED Airlines has no immediate interest in purchasing 777X aircraft from Boeing Co, but views the plane's predecessor, the 777-300ER, as a potentially good fit for its network, the carrier's chief financial officer, John Rainey, told Reuters.
While Mr Rainey has said that the 777-300ER interests United, he noted on Monday that the aircraft could be a quick fix in markets where United needs additional seats to satisfy demand so customers are not forced to book on United's competitors. United is considering whether to swap Boeing 787 Dreamliners it has on order for its first 777-300ER aircraft, which can fit more seats.
