I haven't flown United in more than a Decade if not 15 years. I live in Delta/Alaska airlines country. Nearest United Airlines Airport is 160 miles away. Loved them back in the late '80's, early '90's, but flew them less and less cause of where I live.
Glad to hear it... We need to get more back to normalization.
sparkie.."normalization" is a long way off..until and unless the virus is eradicated and a vaccine is found to work on the millions who will need it,there wont be a "normal"as you mentioned...
Good.. thanks
there is optimisum and hope that eventually the travelling public will come back as strong as ever...ual is making a good decision..even if they must "mothball" aircraft for a while,i dont think they want to "downsize" to the point of "retiring" aircraft..they have however announced their plans to lay off thousands of employees and offer buyouts..that is a "gven" and at this point a necessity for the monetary bottom line...
I flew United yesterday both flights 80 percent full
