Because of these misconnects, UA has ponied up ETCs and I've had to cancel business meetings as well as family events and other trips that I wasn't able to get to because a) UA has reduced the number of LAX-SFO connections and b) UA has curtailed service in and out of LAX to c) pump up this "great hub".

It is even worse for others who try to fly UA but then have even fewer options connecting elsewhere on the West Coast.
