Better ORD - Caribbean service. GCM in particular would be a nice addition and is served by cayman air so there's at least some demand. More than once a week service for the few flights they do have. In general I think UA will need to do something to increase service to the caribbean after usair leaves *alliance.
How would Houston to Auckland work for you? Oh wait, forget that. SWA is going to fly HOU-CUN so no more Houston to Auckland for UA

SFO-ATL and v.v. Route was taken away a couple years back and it's painful.

I really do wish they had a flight from NRT to MNL- on a 777
EWR - ACC will be nice since IAD to ACC was cancelled

LAX-FRA. I can't grab, how UA can leave the entire So.Cal-Germany & hub to hub market to LH, who operates as many as 21 weekly nonstops out of LAX.
I could also see NRT or HKG - CGK developping potential, with the Indonesian economy growing steadily, close to 3x times the size of Vietnam. Not to mention Bali. National flag carrier Garuda is rather weak.

Anything to OAK (bring back OAK-DEN, although LAX or IAH would also be alright)
I'm fed up with taking bart to SFO to wait for my inevitably delayed flight.

So from a business perspective they are by no means leaving "the entire So.Cal-Germany & hub to hub market to LH". They are just using the antitrust construct for exactly what it has been put in place for.

SRS - LAX.
Also a later NYC to SFO so that I can safely leave NYC after work and get to the west coast. 8pm would do but 7pm is impossible.

I'd like to see all of the European flights from EWR that were given up to partner codeshares reinstated. These days if you want to fly to Europe from the East Coast on UA, your options are largely LH codeshares. LH is nice and all, but they keep their cabins too warm.
Most specifically, I'd like to see EWR-ATH non-stop seasonal from pmCO once again.
