Sorry, but I have to chime in with Kathy - I don't like United either, won't fly them again if I can help it. Last time I flew them to the island, they were soooo over booked, they bumped the hell out of every one, then reseated people randomly and tried to get us all drunk on free bottles of champange to keep us quiet. And the overall attitude was rude and just plain frazzled the whole trip, not a calming experience for anyone. Their planes seem really cramped. We usually fly Hawaiian, I think they are very accomodating and the planes seem comfy, this time however, we're trying Alaska. We normally fly Alaska for west coast trips and have been pleased. However, this time, we have to purchase our lunch on board which seems to be the equilvalent of a lunchable cracker snack for 7 or 8 bucks - no thanks we'll bring our own. Sorry to carry on, I understand you only wanted to know about United. :-)
Enjoy the day! Ann
