The Chicago-based carrier is the subject of a federal safety review and has seen aircraft delivery delays.
The Chicago-based airline intends to take just 61 new narrow-body planes this year, the company said Tuesday in a statement as it revealed better-than-expected quarterly results. That’s down from a prior plan of 101 jets and an original expectation of as many as 183 aircraft. The change will cut United’s capital outlays by about $2.5 billion this year to $6.5 billion, the company said.
