The 777-200 can fly some of the longest routes in the world. But the <a href=\"https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/?s=A350\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Airbus A350<\/a> is an unbeatable and game-changer aircraft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In terms of widebody aircraft, incorporating the A350 into the fleet would mark a significant shift in the airline&#8217;s strategy, contrary to the trend of the past seven years, where efforts were made to streamline their operations by reducing diversity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>American Airlines retired a considerable number of aircraft during the pandemic. While the carrier found utility for its Boeing 767s as freighters and met the demand from Northern Pacific for some 757s, they continued paying leases on <a href=\"https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/?s=A330\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Airbus A330s<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The reduction in the available fleet hindered their ability to capitalize on the surge in travel to Europe last year, which proved lucrative for <a href=\"https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/?s=Delta\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Delta Air Lines (DL)<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/?s=United+Airlines\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">United Airlines (UA)<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite this, American Airlines defended its stance, asserting that the simplification of their widebody fleet\u2014exclusively Boeing with a focus on 787\/777 models\u2014positions them favorably for the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/United_Airlines_Boeing_787-10_Dreamliner_N14001_approaching_Newark_Liberty_International_Airport-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"American Airlines Might Place New Order for 737 MAX or A321 and A350 Next Month\" class=\"wp-image-30845\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/United_Airlines_Boeing_787-10_Dreamliner_N14001_approaching_Newark_Liberty_International_Airport-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/United_Airlines_Boeing_787-10_Dreamliner_N14001_approaching_Newark_Liberty_International_Airport-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/United_Airlines_Boeing_787-10_Dreamliner_N14001_approaching_Newark_Liberty_International_Airport-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/United_Airlines_Boeing_787-10_Dreamliner_N14001_approaching_Newark_Liberty_International_Airport-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/United_Airlines_Boeing_787-10_Dreamliner_N14001_approaching_Newark_Liberty_International_Airport-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/United_Airlines_Boeing_787-10_Dreamliner_N14001_approaching_Newark_Liberty_International_Airport-750x563.jpg 750w, https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/United_Airlines_Boeing_787-10_Dreamliner_N14001_approaching_Newark_Liberty_International_Airport-1140x855.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/United_Airlines_Boeing_787-10_Dreamliner_N14001_approaching_Newark_Liberty_International_Airport.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo: By Adam Moreira (AEMoreira042281) &#8211; Own work, CC BY-SA 4.0, https:\/\/commons.wikimedia.org\/w\/index.php?curid=76038724<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a350-or-787-10\">A350 or 787-10?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>It would be quite remarkable for the airline, especially considering it had canceled the A350 order inherited from US Airways in spring 2018, to expand its widebody fleet by introducing the intricacies of this new aircraft type. Nevertheless, it&#8217;s worth noting that American Airlines already possesses an A350 simulator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The airline has dismissed the idea of a 787-10 as a substitute for its Boeing 777-300ERs. However, opting for the A350 would likely involve exploring new destinations that American has been hesitant to serve, deeming them potentially unprofitable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Such a decision would probably necessitate a reevaluation of their route strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/1280px-02152019_American_Airlines_B738M_N314RH_KMIA_NASEDIT_32204796837-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-49673\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/1280px-02152019_American_Airlines_B738M_N314RH_KMIA_NASEDIT_32204796837-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/1280px-02152019_American_Airlines_B738M_N314RH_KMIA_NASEDIT_32204796837-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/1280px-02152019_American_Airlines_B738M_N314RH_KMIA_NASEDIT_32204796837-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/1280px-02152019_American_Airlines_B738M_N314RH_KMIA_NASEDIT_32204796837-750x422.jpg 750w, https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/1280px-02152019_American_Airlines_B738M_N314RH_KMIA_NASEDIT_32204796837-1140x641.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/1280px-02152019_American_Airlines_B738M_N314RH_KMIA_NASEDIT_32204796837.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo: By Nathan Coats from Seattle, WA, United States of America &#8211; 02152019_American Airlines_B738M_N314RH_KMIA_NASEDIT, CC BY-SA 2.0, https:\/\/commons.wikimedia.org\/w\/index.php?curid=76838547<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-narrowbody-order-options\">Narrowbody Order Options<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite 737 MAX issues and the American CEO&#8217;s disappointment with Boeing, they might choose the 737 MAX 10 over its counterpart, Airbus A321neo.
