Ethiopian Airlines announced plans to add another eleven 737 MAX to its fleet during the 2025 Dubai Air Show this week. But its plans for the aircraft's interior is far more significant than the incremental order.

Before this morning’s in-person event with United where I’ll see it for real, here’s a preview video tour of its new Elevated 787-9 interior.

Everything from nose to tail is new, including a next gen Polaris seat with extra special Polaris Studio seats in bulkhead rows. #PaxEx

United has fifth-freedom rights to sell tickets for just the HKG-BKK/SGN legs thanks to the Pan Am Pacific assets it bought in 1986.

Fun fact, in the late noughties I used those rights to buy a ticket (and fly) HKG-SGN the last time United flew the route.

United has unveiled 3 new Pacific routes:

-Adelaide from San Francisco
-Bangkok via Hong Kong
-Ho Chi Minh City via Hong Kong

United's reasoning to take risks is, on the whole I'd say, a good one. Businesses don't thrive and grow by only taking the safe route. www.linkedin.com/posts/edward...

United's HKG mini-hub is back!

The carrier will fly daily to both BKK and SGN from HKG beginning in October, providing onward connections from SFO/LAX.

SFO-ADL will also fly from 11 December, operating 3x weekly.

SFO-MNL gets a second daily flight from October.

"open to considering all manufacturers" sure sounds like COMAC is in play. At least in theory.
