United Airlines 757-200
Overview
The Boeing 757-200 is United's premium narrowbody, with 40 aircraft featuring 16 lie-flat business seats. Its unusual range for a single-aisle jet lets it fly transatlantic, making it unique in United's fleet.
In 2026 it still serves premium transcontinental routes like Newark–Los Angeles and Newark–San Francisco, plus Hawaii and thin transatlantic routes. United has begun gradually phasing out its 757 fleet across roughly 2026–2028: the Airbus A321XLR, which entered service in June 2026, is the designated replacement on thin transatlantic routes, while A321neo and Boeing 737 jets backfill domestic 757 flying.
Seat Configuration
| Cabin | Seats | Layout | Pitch |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lie-flat Business | 16 | 2-2 | 58–78" |
| Economy Plus | 42 | 3-3 | 34" |
| Economy | 118 | 3-3 | 31" |
WiFi & In-Flight Entertainment
Nearly all of the 40 aircraft have Ku-band satellite WiFi, plus AVOD, personal-device entertainment, and 110V AC power at every seat. Because the 757s are being retired, they are not expected to receive United's new Starlink WiFi — instead, the Starlink-equipped A321neo and A321XLR jets replacing them bring the free, high-speed service for MileagePlus members.
