What we know about UA2012

What flying PTY to EWR takes

How we verified this

The origin and destination on this page are the ones we verified for callsign UAL2012 through adsbdb, not a schedule copied from elsewhere. We have logged it airborne on 34 days between 2026-09-20 and 2026-10-23. Timings are observations, not an official operational status: always confirm with the airline before travelling.

This page was published from our own tracking record rather than a third-party schedule feed, so it grows as we see the flight again. The seven-day log below is the raw version of the same evidence.

UA2012 activity in the past 7 days

Our database contains 7 observations of UA2012 across 7 UTC dates in this window, most recently 2026-10-23. Those records contain 7 distinct transponder addresses. The most frequently resolved route was PTY-EWR (7 records).

The median recorded visibility was 213 minutes. That is time inside receiver coverage, not airborne duration or an on-time-performance measurement.

How much CO2 does UA2012 emit?

Worked from the great-circle distance and the fuel burn measured for Boeing 737-800, the aircraft normally flying this route. Carbon dioxide only - see the method below.

Distance flown3,553 km
AircraftBoeing 737-800
Fuel burn rate3.59 kg per km
Fuel burned12,741 kg
CO2, whole flight40.3 tonnes
Seats, typical layout162
Passengers carried134 at an 83% load factor
CO2 per passenger300 kg

Where that lands by cabin

The aircraft burns the same fuel whoever is aboard, so the cabins divide one total rather than each carrying their own. A seat's share is the floor it takes up, which is why an economy seat comes out below the 300 kg cabin average and a flat bed well above it.

Economy143 seats, 119 flown
243 kg CO2 per seat
Business19 seats, 16 flown
706 kg CO2 per seat

Taken whole, UA2012 emits what 671 trees take back out of the air in a year. One economy seat on it accounts for about the same carbon dioxide as driving a petrol car 1,767 km, or 8,585 km of the same journey by train.

How this is worked out. Fuel burn is read from published measurements of this type, taken at a 926 km sector, the only published sector for this type, applied to this route's 3,553 km unadjusted. It counts carbon dioxide only, and the cabin split assumes the layout typical of this size of aircraft. Read the full method, sources and caveats, or put UA2012 against another flight.
