Ua hoʻolaha ʻo United Airlines i kēia lā i ke kauoha ākea nui loa e kahi mea lawe US ma ka mōʻaukala mokulele kalepa: 100 Boeing 787 Dreamliners me nā koho e kūʻai aku i 100 hou aku.

ʻO kēia kūʻai mōʻaukala ka mokuna aʻe o ka hoʻolālā ʻo United Next a e hoʻoikaika i ke kuleana alakaʻi o ka mokulele i ka huakaʻi honua no nā makahiki e hiki mai ana.

Hawaiian Airlines manaʻo e lawe i nā mokulele ākea hou ma waena o 2024 a me 2032 a hiki ke koho i waena o nā hiʻohiʻona 787-8, 9 a i ʻole 10, e hāʻawi ana i ka maʻalahi e kākoʻo i kahi ākea ākea.

Hōʻike kēlā me kēia United 787 i ʻehā mau huahana ma luna o ka papa: ʻO ka papa ʻoihana ʻo United Polaris, United Premium Plus, Economy Plus, a me ka hoʻokele waiwai, e hāʻawi ana i kahi ʻike paʻa i nā ʻauwaʻa ākea ākea o ka mokulele.

Ua hoʻohana pū ʻo United i nā koho e kūʻai i 44 Boeing 737 MAX mokulele no ka lawe ʻana ma waena o 2024 a me 2026 - e like me ka United Next 2026 hoʻolālā hiki - a kauoha aku i 56 mau mokulele MAX hou no ka lawe ʻana ma waena o 2027 a me 2028.

Ke manaʻo nei ka mokulele e lawe i kahi o 700 mau mokulele liʻiliʻi a ākea hou ma ka hopena o 2032, me ka awelika ʻoi aku ma mua o ʻelua i kēlā me kēia pule ma 2023 a ʻoi aku ma mua o ʻekolu i kēlā me kēia pule i 2024.

Eia kekahi, ke hoʻomau nei ʻo United i kāna hoʻoikaika ʻana i ka hoʻomaikaʻi ʻana i ka loko o kāna mau moku i kēia manawa. ʻOi aku ma mua o 90% o nā hui ākea ākea o ka mea lawe i kēia manawa i ka noho ʻoihana ʻoihana ʻo United Polaris®, a me kahi noho ʻo United Premium Plus® - e hoʻopau ʻia nā hoʻomaikaʻi no nā mokulele i koe i ke kauwela o 2023. E hoʻihoʻi hou ʻo United i 100% o kāna. ka laina nui, nā mokulele ololi me kona pūlima i loko - ma kahi o 100 mau mokulele e hoʻolālā ʻia e hoʻopau ʻia i 2023 me ke koena i manaʻo ʻia e hoʻopau ʻia ma ka hopena o 2025.

Ma kahi o 100 mau mokulele o ke kauoha widebody hou e manaʻo ʻia e pani i nā mokulele Boeing 767 a me Boeing 777 kahiko, me nā mokulele 767 a pau i hoʻoneʻe ʻia mai nā ʻauwaʻa United i ka makahiki 2030, a hiki i ka 25% ka emi ʻana o ka hoʻokuʻu kalapona i kēlā me kēia noho no nā mokulele hou. hoʻohālikelike ʻia me nā mokulele kahiko e manaʻo ʻia e pani.

"Ua puka mai ʻo United mai ka maʻi maʻi ma ke ʻano he mokulele honua nui o ka honua a me ka mea lawe hae o ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa," wahi a United CEO Scott Kirby. "Hoʻoikaika hou kēia kauoha i kā mākou alakaʻi a hana i nā manawa hou no kā mākou mea kūʻai aku, nā limahana a me nā mea kuleana ma o ka wikiwiki ʻana i kā mākou hoʻolālā e hoʻopili i nā poʻe hou aʻe i nā wahi a puni ka honua a hāʻawi i ka ʻike maikaʻi loa i ka lewa."

"Me kēia hoʻolimalima i kāna mau'auwaʻa e hiki mai ana, e kōkua ka 737 MAX a me 787 iā United e hoʻoikaika i kāna mau'auwaʻa hou a me ka hoʻolālā ulu honua," wahi a Stan Deal, ka pelekikena a me ka Luna Nui o Boeing Commercial Airplanes. "Hoʻohanohano ʻia ka hui Boeing e ka hilinaʻi o United i kā mākou ʻohana o nā mokulele e hoʻopili i nā poʻe a lawe i nā ukana a puni ka honua no nā makahiki e hiki mai ana."

ʻO ke kauoha paʻa no nā mokulele 787 e kamaʻilio nei i nā pono o ka mokulele ākea ākea o United i kēia mau makahiki he ʻumi e hiki mai ana - ʻo kā lākou hoʻomaikaʻi maikaʻi ʻana i ka mālama ʻana a me ka ʻoihana ahi e hoʻonui i ka hoʻoikaika ʻana o United e hoʻomaikaʻi i kāna ʻike kumukūʻai holoʻokoʻa. Ma ka hui pū ʻana me Boeing, kōkua pū kēia kauoha iā United e mālama i ka maʻalahi me ka manawa o ka hoʻomaha mokulele ākea.

Ma ka manawa like, ʻo nā koho 787 e ʻae iā United e hoʻomau i ka ulu ʻana i kāna pūnaewele puni honua a e kōkua i ka mālama ʻana i nā palena alakaʻi o ka mokulele i ka lele honua ma waena o nā mea lawe US.

"Ke hoʻoponopono nei kēia kauoha i kā mākou mea e pono ai ka hoʻololi ʻana i ka widebody i kēia manawa ma kahi ala ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka wahie a me ke kumu kūʻai, ʻoiai e hāʻawi pū ana i kā mākou mea kūʻai aku i kahi ʻike maikaʻi loa," wahi a Gerry Laderman, ka EVP o United a me ka Luna Nui. "A inā ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka wā e hiki mai ana o ka lele lele lōʻihi e like me kā mākou e manaʻo ai, hiki iā United ke hoʻohana i kēlā mau manawa kūpono ma ka hoʻohana ʻana i kēia mau koho ākea hou - ke kakali nei au i ka palena hoʻonui a me ka loaʻa ʻana o kēia mau mokulele."

ʻO nā koho i hoʻohana ʻia no ka mokulele MAX e kūlike me ka mana 2026 a me ʻelua mau palena palena e pili ana me ka hoʻolālā United Next. Ua hoʻomaka pū ʻo United e kūkulu i ka puke kauoha no 2027 a ma waho aku me ke kauoha paʻa no 56 mau mokulele MAX hou.

I nā makahiki ʻelua i hala iho nei, ua hoʻohui ʻo United i 13 mau huakaʻi honua hou, 40 mau ala honua hou a me nā huakaʻi hou aku i 10 mau ala honua. Aia kēia hoʻonui i ka lawelawe i London-Heathrow, kahi i hoʻohui ai ka mokulele i ʻelima mau mokulele hou i kēlā me kēia lā, no ka huina o 23 mau huakaʻi i kēlā me kēia lā i hoʻolālā ʻia no ke kauwela o 2023, me kahi kaʻa kaʻa i kēlā me kēia hola mai New York/Newark.

Ke lawelawe nei ʻo United i nā helu ʻelua helu honua mai kēlā me kēia o kāna mau kikowaena US:

"E hoʻoikaika hou ʻia kā mākou ʻauwaʻa ākea e kēia mau hoʻopuka hou 787 a hoʻoikaika hou i ka mea a mākou e hana maikaʻi ai: hoʻohui i nā poʻe a hoʻohui i ka honua me nā mokulele hou, mea kūʻai aku a maikaʻi hoʻi i ka wahie," wahi a Andrew Nocella, United's EVP and Chief Commercial Officer . "Ua hoʻonohonoho kūʻokoʻa ʻo United no ka hopu ʻana i ka noi huakaʻi honua e hoʻomaikaʻi i kā mākou pūnaewele puni honua, ka nui o nā ʻauwaʻa a me nā ʻīpuka. Hōʻike kēia hui ʻana i kahi pōmaikaʻi nui no kā mākou ʻoihana no nā makahiki e hiki mai ana a me kahi kumu ʻē aʻe no nā mea kūʻai aku a me nā mea leʻaleʻa e koho iā United.

I kēia kauwela i hala aku nei ua lilo ʻo United i mokulele mokulele nui loa ma waena o ka US a me ka ʻāina ʻAkelanika, ʻo ia hoʻi ʻo ʻEulopa, ka Middle East, India a me ʻApelika.

Ma mua o kēia makahiki, ua hoʻomaka ʻo United i ka hoʻonui transatlantic nui loa i kona mōʻaukala me ka hoʻomaka ʻana o nā mokulele hou he ʻumi - me nā wahi ʻē aʻe ʻaʻole lawelawe ʻo ʻAmelika ʻAmelika e like me Amman, Jordan; Tenerife, Canary Islands; Ponta Delgada, Azores a me Mallorca, Sepania.

ʻO ke kauwela aʻe, e hoʻomau ka hoʻonui ʻia ʻana o ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa me ka lawelawe hou i ʻekolu mau kūlanakauhale - Malaga, Sepania, Stockholm, Suedena; a me Dubai, UAE - a me ʻeono mau mokulele i kekahi o nā wahi kaulana loa ma ʻEulopa, me Roma, Paris, Barcelona, London, Berlin a me Shannon.

Ma ka huina, e lele ʻole ʻo United i 37 mau kūlanakauhale ma ʻEulopa, ʻApelika, India a me ka Middle East i ke kauwela e hiki mai ana, ʻoi aku ma mua o nā mokulele US āpau i hui pū ʻia.

ʻO United nō hoʻi ka mea lawe nui loa mai ka US ma waena o ka Pākīpika a e lawelawe i nā ala transpacific 20 i ka hoʻomaka ʻana o 2023, me ka hoʻi hou ʻana i ka makahiki. Ma waho aʻe o Mainland China a me Hong Kong, ʻoi aku ka mana o United ma waena o ka Pākīpika ma mua o 2019 pae i kēia makahiki aʻe.

ʻO ka hoʻonui kaulana loa ma kēia māhele aia ma ka Pākīpika Hema, a ma Australia pū kekahi. ʻO United wale nō ka mokulele e holo mau ana ma waena o ʻAmelika a me Australia i ka wā maʻi maʻi, e mālama ana i kahi loulou lako lako a kōkua i nā ʻohana e pili pū. Ke hoʻomaka nei ʻo Australia no kāna manawa mākaʻikaʻi piha hema hema ma kahi o ʻekolu mau makahiki, ʻoi aku ka nui o nā mokulele ʻo United e pili ana iā Australia a me US ma mua o nā mokulele ʻē aʻe.

Hāʻawi ʻo United i ʻeono mau ala hoʻokuʻu ʻole e hoʻopili ai i nā kūlanakauhale nui ʻekolu o Australia - Sydney, Melbourne a me Brisbane - me ʻekolu mau wahi mākaʻikaʻi a me ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa - San Francisco, Los Angeles a me Houston. Eia kekahi, ʻo ka hui pū ʻana o codeshare me Virgin Australia e hiki ai i ka poʻe huakaʻi ke hana maʻalahi i nā pilina ma mua o 20 mau kūlanakauhale ʻē aʻe i loko o Australia, e kōkua ana i ke kākoʻo ʻana i ka hoʻokele waiwai o ka ʻāina.

Ke hoʻomau nei ʻo United i ke kūkulu hou ʻana i nā lawelawe transpacific ʻē aʻe. I Ianuali 2023, hoʻolālā ka mokulele e lele 48 mau manawa i kēlā me kēia pule mai ka Continental US i Iapana, me ka lawelawe hou mai Newark/New York a Haneda a me ka hoʻokuʻu hou ʻana o Kapalakiko i Osaka.

I nā makahiki ʻekolu i hala iho nei, ua hoʻohui ʻo United i ʻelima mau huakaʻi hoʻokuʻu ʻole i nā kūlanakauhale ʻehā ma ʻApelika a hāʻawi i kēia manawa i nā ala kū ʻole i Cape Town a me Johannesburg mai Newark/New York a i Accra, Ghana; Lagos, Nigeria a me Cape Town mai Wakinekona DC

ʻO ka ʻaelike hou a United me Emirates, e hoʻomaka ana me kahi lele holo ʻole hou ma waena o Newark/New York a me Dubai, UAE i Malaki 2023, e hoʻonui nui i ka hiki ʻana o ka mokulele i ka Middle East a me India, e wehe ana i nā pilina maʻalahi i kahi kokoke i 100 mau kūlanakauhale ma ka ʻāina. ʻO Emirates a me kona kaikuahine mokulele flydubai.
