Just switched to United from Delta. How do you ask United for consistent delays due to aircraft maintenance issues? You can only email and United responds 8-12 weeks with a Sorry? How to get points?

Aren’t you supposed to ask the gate agent at the time you’re stuck in an airport due to said delay?

They give you email for customer service. And it is generally not like stuck, it is incoming aircraft delayed, sit and wait for crew....adds two to three hour from scheduled time

If you’ve got status they’ll generally give you 200-300 in credit. Got around 1K last year thanks to various mess ups (power not working in first, mechanical delays, once some random person pawing my head)

Welcome to why United and American suck at customer service. Good luck figuring this out (I mean that seriously).

American is not even on that level. They usually get back within 24-48 hours. Last time I had an issue the customer service rep called me to follow up and make sure I was happy.

Email. I usually get response within 24 to 48 hours
