United Airlines is set to make updates to its Northern Winter 2024/2025 long-haul schedule. Here are some notable changes I’ve found so far:
- Los Angeles (LAX) to Auckland (AKL) canceled
- Los Angeles (LAX) to Brisbane (BNE) canceled
- San Francisco (SFO) to Brisbane (BNE) Boeing 777-300ER and 777-200ER replaces 787-9
- Newark (EWR) to Tenerife (TFS) extended from seasonal to year-round.
- Newark (EWR) to Paris (CDG) flights reduced
United just launched the Los Angeles to Auckland and Brisbane routes last winter, but no longer plans to operate the two for the coming winter. However, United will make up some of the lost Brisbane capacity by upgauging its SFO-BNE route from the 257-seat 787-9 to the 350-seat 777-300ER between December 19 and March 7. Outside of this period, United will operate the 777-200ER on SFO-BNE.
