6 Doors





4 Doors



6 Door aircraft has a 350 seat limit due to the greater number of exits, while the 4 door aircraft is limited to 290 seats.

Also, in case of 4 Door aircraft, one of the overwing exits can be deactivated. This is mostly done by private operators and a few airlines who never needed 290 seats in their 767 anyways. United also operates a few, one of which is already repainted by inibuilds as N676UA
