UA announces press conference / event in Chicago on Oct 25 , 2019

Another Friday enhancement?

Today in our hometown of Chicago, we’re meeting with media, customers and employees to share exciting updates about our continued growth and investments in the customer experience. Follow us here throughout the day to learn more. #UnitedFlightPlan

“We're building the best airline in the world for our customers and employees. The concept of caring isn't just about connecting people from one place to another, it’s more personal. It’s about people and bringing them to what matters most.” – Oscar Munoz, CEO #UnitedFlightPlan

34,000. The number of people we expect to hire between now - 2022. This includes 8,000 flight attendants, 4,000 pilots and 2,000 technicians. https://t.co/M9hD8Odffw #UnitedFlightPlan

ConnectionSaver, a tool we introduced earlier this year, has saved thousands of customers’ connections. It automatically identifies departing flights that can be held for connecting customers, while ensuring the flight still arrives on time. #UnitedFlightPlan

No. more. waiting. in. line! We’ve automated the process for allowing customers to book hotel rooms following a flight cancellation. Introducing Soft Landing, which is live and has already helped thousands of customers. #UnitedFlightPlan

Tour your ✈️ before you board. Our new virtual tour lets you experience seats + cabin features during the booking process. Live this weekend for flights on our CRJ-550 and on additional fleet types soon. So go on and select that perfect window (or aisle) spot. #UnitedFlightPlan https://t.co/QcNpFDlKfN


We are strengthening our reputation as an aviation industry leader in environmental sustainability by committing an additional $40 million to accelerate the development of sustainable aviation fuels. http://uafly.co/gnxbmw #UnitedFlightPlan #EcoSkies

Among all airlines around the world, we hold +50% of all purchase commitments to use sustainable aviation fuels and we’re the only U.S. carrier to currently use this fuel on a continuous basis. #UnitedFlightPlan

Previously: miles were deposited into your MileagePlus account within two days.

Now: miles are deposited in real-time when the flight arrives at the gate, giving customers the most accurate information about their miles. #UnitedFlightPlan

We will be launching @clear in Houston Terminal B and E on October 30 and Newark in the coming weeks, with additional openings in Houston Terminal C and Chicago expected later this year. #UnitedFlightPlan

Later this year: personalized jet lag plans. We’re partnering with @Timeshifterapp to give a free personalized plan so that you arrive at your best. Used by astronauts, elite athletes and soon United customers. #UnitedFlightPlan
