For example, if a code share flight in the United schedule uses an Airbus A341 it is not available to UVA pilots; however, if it uses an Airbus A321 it is available to UVA pilots. The Board determined this was the best way to maximize the number of new routes while not fundamentally altering the kinds of equipment flown by UVA Pilots.This important upgrade provides a very major expansion of UVA
