United finally decided it needed to do some serious cutting.
After watching Delwest, then AMR's American cut way back and at the same time seeing its hopes for a marriage dashed at Match.com (she didn't even make it to the Alter!), United is finally being a bit sensible and cutting capacity. Consigned to the dustbin of history will be a further 6-744s and ALL of the 737s will be gone by 2009.
Also being consigned to that same garbage location is TED. The pointless excuse for a LCC look alike. In the same manner as SONG (Delta's also poor excuse) TED will expire and be replaced with UNIT (just kidding) - mainline United. Seems that this is not a good time to be investing in yellow paint.
Altogether 70+ planes will go.
It should be noted that United has no new planes on order at this time.
Cheers
Timothy
