As merger integration continues, United aircraft and crews will continue to operate on some routes formerly covered by Continental aircraft and crews, and vice versa. This effort optimizes our route network, better utilizes our aircraft resources, and allows us to better serve our customers. Redeploying aircraft places the right size aircraft in each market, and doing so maximizes revenue and minimizes cost.
The following redeployments begin with the fall schedule and will be loaded in our reservation systems by April 23, 2011.
· HKG-SGN moves from UA 747 to CO 737 (effective October 30, 2011)
· HKG-SIN moves from UA 747 to CO 737 (effective October 30, 2011)
· GUM-NRT moves from CO 767 and CO 737 to UA 777 (effective October 30, 2011)
· HNL-GUM moves from CO 767 to UA 777 (effective October 28, 2011)Additionally, we also plan to begin new, four-times-a-week CO 737 service this fall between Guam (GUM) and Okinawa (OKA), Japan, as well as daily CO 737 service between Narita (NRT) and Hong Kong (HKG).
Schedule and aircraft changes are a normal part of our business and w...e will continue to strive to make the best use of all of our resources. Exchanging Continental and United aircraft in markets will not affect the overall balance of scheduled aircraft block hours between the two subsidiaries. However, the base that is assigned to work a specific flight pairing may change. We will see additional changes as the integration progresses, and as always, we will advise you of changes as they occur.
