United Axes Continental OnePass At Year End

Yes I agree that UA is a pretty bad airline. CO for years was one of, if not the best, medium haul carrier. Things went somewhat downhill when there was the beginning rumors of merger with UA.
United is a wretched dog of an airline and has been for over 30 years. For the last 10 of those years they have been looking for a SUCKER to merge with so as to more easily bail themselves out of their bankruptsy woes. What a disgusting shame that it had to be a truly quality airline like Continental. Absolutely DISGUSTING!!! Nothing good of any kind will result from this.... how sad. Good Bye class and quality, Hello bigger crap!!!
Well, I hope a lot of you Continental folks do disappear so United can concentrate on taking care of their long time VERY frequent flyers on a regular basis instead of trying to stuff double the amount of "Elite" folks in the same amount of seats.
HAW! Was for some years a happy UA 'Premier'. Their OMA station, long run by ex-USAF pilot Andy Vassios, was known systemwide as a great place to work or pass thru. But once ALPA & the corporate thieves w/MBA's & JD's got this grand old lady by the throat, they raped her beyond coherence or recognition. Was finally SO glad to ditch 'em (for NW, at the time) that I can recall my very last UA flight: 30 Dec 1996, out & back OMA-DIA.
In 15 years since, I purposefully & successfully avoided that wretched airline. Unfortunately now they're ALL (at least in the USA) wretched. When combined w/those pensioned gov't tax sucks, gang bangers, welfare mommas & other losers-the 'Thousands Sexually Assaulting' who daily grope, degrade & steal from countless normal American citizens at commercial airports-air carrier travel has become an intolerable event. So, now fortunate to work where every company site is within 800 driving miles, & with no relatives more distant than 900, I've been able to completely stop traveling by domestic airline. Yippee ki-yi-yay! Screw 'em all. I ain't flyin'!

yeah, I left screwnited 3 years ago after 21 yrs. of customer service. At the end I felt more like a passenger advocate than an airline representative. The goons at Chicago systematically centralized all power and control to ratchet up the fees and restrictions. I tried to accommodate the passenger as best I could, despite United management's supercilious doctrine.
All airlines in this country operate on deception and lies. They always have. Anyone who believes what they say is gullible. We are not much more than sardines ready to be packed in their cans when we board a flight. The thing that makes it worse now is their ability to discover new ways to screw their customers, like charging for luggage, selling aisle seats and exit rows. I have watched them deteriorate for many years and over ten million air miles.
I am now retired and prefer to drive. At least I don't have to listen to their hype and lies any longer. All current frequent flyers have my sympathy.
