United prepares Summer 2014 changes

It seems that United Airlines is preparing a big switch – around for the Summer 2014 season, with services from Newark to Europe having major changes according to Airline Routes http://airlineroute.net/2013/10/12/ua-s14update2/

There is some serious re-gauging of routes, with 757-200’s swapped for 767-300ER’s and 777s

Routes affected include:

• Newark – Amsterdam goes from a 757-200(exCO) to a 767-300ER(exUA) – Limited Dates
• Newark – Berlin Tegel goes from a 757-200(exCO) to a 767-300ER(exUA) – Limited Dates
• Newark – Brussels goes is to be operated with a 777-200ER(exUA) for entire Summer season
• Newark – Frankfurt goes from a 777-200ER(exUA) to a 767-400(exCO) with variable dates

• Newark – London Heathrow switches out 757-200(exCO) to 4 daily 767 sand 1 daily 777. (767-300ER – exUA)

Also:

• Chicago – Munich goes from a 767-300ER(exUA) to 777-200ER (exUA)
• Houston – Frankfurt goes from 777-200ER(exCO) to  767-300ER(exUA

It’s important to note these changes as there are a lot of differences between the old Continental products and United products as they strive to build one airline.
