Yeah, I just noticed that on the UA forum. Too bad. I wonder what basis they would have to plan a route and then cancel it before they start it. Fuel prices haven't increased since then (maybe they've decreased), 787 deliveries are not delayed that much.

The UA apologists will say that this is the airline "sticking it" to Houston over their move to open up HOU for international flights, but I doubt that.
