Just wondering , in what year did UA ban smoking during flight? This is just a question for myself, not a statement that smoking on planes is a good idea.
Thanks.
It was definitely in the late 90's when it was banned worldwide on UA flights, however they banned it on domestic flights a few years prior to that. I can remember using the UA Connexion software around 96-97 and when you pulled up seat maps for flights to South America there were seats in the back of the plane marked for smoking. These were the last remaining flights that had smoking seats.
