  1. Gary, Please, don’t use or include embedded TikTok links or hyperlinks in your articles! It’s bad enough approximately 25% of Americans are using the CCP-linked app. There are no security or tracking protections.

  2. agree with not using Tiktok when safer links are available. Record and download on another format with credits for a safer private transfer without giving your reader’s info to Tik-Tok.

  3. United Airlines being the flag carrier of the United States is a joke. What is Nocella smoking?
    I’m 6’5″ and find Polaris seats horrible – super cramped.

    Inedible food in Business. Aging rude cabin crew – especially on long haul or Hawaii.

    One trip to HNL on UA last February nailed it for me – never again!

  4. The bigger problem with older flight attendants will be getting qualified in 737/A32X products, as they don’t bid for any flights under 8 hours.

  5. United will never be the flag carrier of the US. They are the worst of the major three, by far, and only get the business they do because they’re cheap. I will happily keep paying a premium to fly Delta when I go international, because they have superior service, better lounges, better partners, and better hard product in flight. Polaris is a joke.

    Let’s be real though, all US major airlines are an embarrassment compared to the flag carriers of many other nations.

  6. I’ve not flown United (or Continental) for 30 years as they were/are the worst of the major carriers. Even if the have improved they are NOT the flag-carrier of the US. Who appointed them?

  7. I’m 83 years old and working on my second million miles with United, formally a Continental flyer.
    In most cases I have found the airline attendants to be friendly and willing to assist if needed.
    Would not be able to fly if it weren’t for their Customer Service and Disability Department.
    PLEASE KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!

  8. I know absolutely no one who flies with United. I stopped flying with American when I left Texas (thank goddess) because it’s a main hub and now I can use Alaska Air out of Seattle.

    Delta is at the top of the list for US carriers.

  9. I’ve never been on a plane, probably because I’ve never had a reason to. (would love one though) so I can speak on the quality of flying. However, I am knowledged with customer service and that is vital for so many companies. I will literally stop going somewhere based on my experience. I always give a second chance because face it, we all have bad days. So the second time if not met with wonderful service will be my last time.
