United volará to Quito with the 737 MAX
From the 26 march 2023, the airídon't startá their flights to Quito with the más new and modern avión of the family 737, the MAX in its variant 8 to landá at Marshal Sucre at the following times from Monday to Sunday:
- Flight UA1002 takes off from Houston at 18:15 hours and lands in Quito at 23:35 hours after 5 hours and 20 minutes.

The Boeing 737 MAX 8 of United isán configured to 166 passengers, divided as follows: 16 seats in business, 54 in Económica Plus y 96 in Económica. It should be noted that the current Boeing 737-700 with whom the airline operatesínea currently have a capacity to 126 passengers, Therefore, the MAX represents an increase in supply in a 32% O 560 weekly extra seats.
I couldíwe love waiting tooén, the possibility in high season, to see the versionón MAX 9, with a capacity to 179 passengers, that exceeds even the capacity of the Boeing 757 spaghettién used in Quito 169 seating.
We will be attentive to the first flight of United's MAX covering the daily route between Houston and Quito in the month of March.
It is always positive to operate with the latest generation aircraft, welcome to United Airlines 🇺🇲 with the Boeing 737 Max 8 To Quito. yes nicholas, in high season they tend to increase frequencies and at least if they would not, they can send the version 9 as Aeroméxico and Copa Airlines have already done, not necessarily in high seasons.
On the other hand, I see that Delta Airlines 🇺🇲 has already left the B757-200 and brings the Boeing 767-300ER to Quito, its closest replacement in terms of future capacity would be the Boeing 767-400/Airbus A330-200 or even larger and more modern Airbus A330-900 Neo. Hopefully the demand justifies it to be able to see one of these great ones here with the Delta colors.
Hi Carlos, you came across a good topic, I am still not clear in the medium term which Delta plane will take the route to Quito, everything will depend on the demand, if it stays high like right now with the Boeing 767, I'm sure we'll be able to see some of Delta's most modern aircraft here, we will see.
