What is UA thinking? There are no classy illustrations (as UA used to have) no theme that ties in with a brand (friendly skies), etc.

Its all just amature hour. The UA brand at this point is the dorky guy who gets to avoid the horrible UA service and the bad lines with his UA explorer card when going on his once a year trip (where he can't seem to dress properly for a tropical location) with someone who looks like his mistress.

There is no brand, and in a service industry, there is no service to uphold any brand promise.
