About

United Airlines was the launching customer for the 777 program. UAL and Boeing signed, on 15th October 1990, a handwritten contract on an "old-yellowish" sheet of paper. UAL ordered 34 777s with options for another 34. Till now UAL has only make 59 of this order/option firm. From this 59 not all are still flying for United, some have been returned to the lessors during the restructuring of UAL in Chapter11 procedures.
On 7th June 1995 the first 777 made its entry-into-service flight from LHR to IAD as UA921. Two other United 777s made their EIS later on the same day. In late July of 2007 UA has published its new seat for the business class.
