I like United miles, connections, and GS status. Who likes any airline, especially US ones?

likesmart

People loving United would be news to me.

I don't like United, but they're the path of least resistance when you are based out of IAH. I do like many of their international Star Alliance partners though, which is where I spend all my points.

Nobody I know likes United. I suspect some people are held hostage living in a hub

I don’t know if airplane traveling with a dog is the best idea. Anyway, seems like the FA is somewhat stupid but I’m not sure how a dog owner would comply with that. The main issue is exactly that - people let UA representatives treat them this way.
I personally have no issues with United, fly out of hub and get my value being 1K and *G. ALL US carriers are crap but that’s because people accept crappy carriers

Free same day changes with gold, easiest points redemption for international flights, civilized boarding process with no gate lice, and, of course, stroopwafels.

I agree with a lot of points from Deloitte 1. I am a 1K flier of United and will continue. All airlines have areas of opportunity, but I'm as responsible for my airline experiences as the airline employees. This is a very sad story, but this is a reflection of the flight attendants on that flight and the dog owner actions, not of all the UA employees. Would you want your team, firm, friends and/or family categorized based on the actions of one person?

One of my friends has been loyal to this company for so long and I send him a new article of United fucking up Atleast once a week lmao

I love United. Way better than American, which I am all but forced to fly now due to living near hub. It's all relative.

like

Protiviti tells the truth. They basically own all relevant traffic out of IAH

I am stuck with United Express and the experience has been mixed.

United is great if you have status. If you don't, you should probably avoid like the plague.
