  • Split screen capabilities allowing customers to watch a movie and view the flight map simultaneously
  • A relax mode for customers who want to customise a selection of soothing videos and relaxing audio playlists
  • The world’s most extensive suite of accessibility features on a seatback entertainment system, which accommodates any level of vision, as well as provides support for customers with hearing and mobility issues
  • Movie and television recommendations based on remaining flight time and previously watched content

The B787-10 is 18 feet longer than the B787-9 and can carry more passengers and more cargo. The -10 aircraft can fly up to 6,430 nautical miles, while using 20% less fuel than older generation aircraft. United currently operates 25 B787-9 and 12 B787-8 Dreamliner aircraft. The airline expects to take delivery of 14 B787-10 aircraft over the next two years.
