One more way to cause passengers more pain, how true, over 8 hours and that is pushing things, would give me real cause to look elsewhere for a more comfortable trip.I guess they won't be happy till someone flies around the world in coach, e gods
One last thought, they say the aircraft has to fly to make money, things must not be too great at United.
Why does United think that I want to transit through Baghdad-by-the-Bay to get to Singapore? Los Angeles is where the passengers are, and none of them wants to crowd into one of United's cluster jets for the first or last hour of the flight.
Hopefully SQ will bring back the LAX flight now that fuel is cheap enough, and Pres. Trump will keep it that way.

On a route of this length, the 789 will likely already be weight limited and/or need to do tech stops when the winds are unfavorable. Adding on an extra 45 minutes of flight to LAX would only make things even worse. And, in fairness, the coach seating situation on the UA 787 isn't any better than on their narrow-bodies. In fact, as a frequent United flyer, I'd take one of their E-175 seats over the 787 seats.
Can't see me sitting for 16:30 WOW
And only $5876 one way for business. That's $.70 per mile.
