United Airlines Holdings Inc. plans to add 10 new international destinations and three additional routes starting March 2027, expanding its global network from key U.S. hubs.
Service will resume from San Francisco to Okinawa, Japan and Tel Aviv, Israel, with three weekly flights to Tel Aviv beginning March 28. Washington Dulles International Airport will connect to Toulouse, France and Milan, Italy, while Newark Liberty International will serve Luxembourg City, Marseille, Ibiza, Valencia, Terceira, Ljubljana, Olbia and Catania. Los Angeles will add a route to Osaka, Japan and Denver will introduce a link to Paris.
The airline will deploy its Airbus A321XLR aircraft on routes to Luxembourg, Toulouse, Marseille, Ibiza and Valencia, featuring 20 United Polaris business class suites and 12 Premium Plus seats. The A321XLR is scheduled to enter domestic service in September before transitioning to international routes on December 1 with flights from Washington Dulles to Amsterdam and Dublin. Tickets for international A321XLR flights are available for purchase on united.com and the United app.
United stated it will be the only U.S. airline offering nonstop service to eight of the 10 new destinations. The expansion follows the addition of 58 international destinations since 2017, bringing the airline's total international reach to more than 160 destinations from its U.S. hubs in Chicago, Denver, Houston, Los Angeles, Newark, San Francisco and Washington, D.C. All new routes remain subject to government approval.
