Mention of United's LAX plans in a Flightglobal article dated yesterday:

https://www.flightglobal.com/news/ar...at-lax-437860/

"United Airlines is now the only one of the big three that has not announced multi-billion investment plans for LAX. The Chicago-based carrier operates from 20 gates in terminals 7 and 8 but is in talks with LAWA regarding preferential access to a possible future terminal 9."

"'Today, we don’t have the gates and the facilities – yet – to really grow and compete with Delta, American and Southwest,' said Scott Kirby, president of United, on LAX in March. 'The most important part of that is actually ensuring that terminal 9 becomes a facility that is dedicated to Star Alliance and United.'"
