to the ua employees working on thanksgiving

yes, you work a 7 day a week job but it is still hard to work on a holiday and to be away from family so i would simply like to say thank you to the folks at my favorite airline

Very nice post Goalie. You are a classy guy. Wish I could meet you one day, but unfortunately, I am to remain Flyertalk friendless staying anonymous. Have a Happy Thanksgiving as well, and the same to the other FTer's here. Off to eat.

Not flying today (thank goodness), but all the best to everyone working today. And safe travels to all who are riding the aluminum turkeys in the sky.

Thank you UA team!!! I am seeing some top notch attitudes in dealing with impatient jerks. Keep up the good work. To passengers traveling today, chill out and relax or you'll ruin your day and some other people's too.

Thank you all, and esp thank you Mr. purser who went extra mile for me last night IAD-SFO on A319! made my 6 hour flight stuck in domestic first much more pleasant.

I second that...

ORD seems pretty quite right now. Glad the snow didn't materialize even if it would mean more quality time at ORD.

Currently in RCC heading home to SFO after Thanksgiving with mother in law. I hope everyone had a very happy Thanksgiving and I hope those who have worked today enjoy the rest of the evening with their friends, family and love ones...and pets.

Thank you to the UA team working today, and everyday. You guys are beginning to rebuild UA to become a great airline again, my favorite airline.

I see improvement in attitude constantly, and while things are far from perfect, it is a solid start.

I should know, after more than 1 Million Miles lifetime, and 5 consecutive years as a 1K.
