Clickbait. The B777 is probably the safest, most meticulously engineered commercial wide-body aircraft ever built. They're also getting old, and airlines retire old aircraft.

The article explicitly says that the aircraft is safe. I don't think this is particularly clickbait-y.

One sentence buried in an article that ledes with BIG SCARY ENGINE FAILURE.

These are the exact points written in the article.

They also substantiate the idea that the United 777-200 fleet does face an uncertain future.
