United Airlines is adjusting its domestic route network, focusing on its Northeastern U.S. hubs. The airline will cut three routes from Newark Liberty International Airport while increasing capacity at Washington Dulles International Airport.
The changes involve discontinuing services from Newark to Rhode Island T.F. Green International Airport, Manchester-Boston Regional Airport, and Albany International Airport this spring. According to Ishrion Aviation, these adjustments aim to optimize United's operations at the congested and slot-restricted Newark airport.
Service from Newark to Providence will end on March 29, 2025. In March, United plans 58 flights each way on this route using the CRJ550 aircraft, offering a total of 5,800 seats. On March 30, 2025, United will introduce a fourth daily flight from Providence to Washington Dulles with various aircraft types initially but transitioning exclusively to the CRJ550 in April.
