Last year in Dec23, UL was down with nine aircraft. Was told due to shortage of engineers.
I wonder why issues are affecting the UL fleet during the peak season.
I see below are out of service as of today

UL wants to make A330 family the flagship, they will most likely be sticking to A339s and A338s to replace the aging A333s and A332s, even though the A338 is kinda not really ideal because it has the same range as the A350 but carriers less passengers, so it's better that UL replaces their A333s with A350s and A332s with A339s, this is just my opinion though.
What do you think??Sien (KR/SL/US)

if UL plans on upgauging their fleet then A359 replaces the A332 and the A35X and a339 replaces the A333(maybe)
or..
they could go the way you said, A339 for the A332 and A350 for the A333.
one thing to consider here is the cost per seat and how much seats actually gets booked on the plane as an %
the A359 is only 3m longer than the A339
**edit- if anyone's concerned about the new type affecting the pilots, it requires a short period of 'difference training'-- most often taking less than a month(I think)spotting Y-12s and helicopters from my home..Comment
