A few examples, some more tenuous than others:
  • The thing called "united.com" will be powered by the thing currently accessible via "continental.com"
  • The thing called "mobile.united.com" actually points to the thing formerly accessible via "pda.continental.com"
  • The single shared FAA operating certificate that says "United Airlines" on it is the one that was formerly used by the Continental subsidiary
  • Every "United Club" now serves prepackaged fruit, vegetables, and cheese and offers a free bar

There are surely counterexamples (the new name "BusinessFirst" for the middle cabin of a sUA 763).
I am PMCO, but largely agnostic since my travel only really picked up at the time of the merger. However, one would think that the PMUA people would be happy about the free booze in the club. That is a vast improvement for the price of admission. Also weren't the dispensers with the trail mix and raisins PMUA?
