Wonder if we'll see EWR upgraded at some point? Isn't it the only year round narrowbody transatlantic flight that United operate?
I'd agree with you on a year round Toronto route. I reckon Air Canada could sustain it during the winter on the 737 Max or when their A321XLRs arrive - even if it's kept at a 3x weekly service. Even Glasgow can sustain a YYZ route! Albeit only once weekly.
UA -EWR. I believe you are correct re the only transatlantic year round route served by a 752. With 752’s gradually being phased out, they will eventually have to utilise other aircraft types. It’s the aircraft availability issue I assume. The obvious upgrade currently would be to a 788. I suspect they will plod on with a 752 for as long as they can before they take delivery of the 321XLR’s.
