I'll bet it is... UA stopped differentiating Ted from mainline quite awhile ago..and certainly don't appear to be marketing Ted any longer separately (other than the "operated by Ted" tagline on your itinerary which is programmed in). Killing him off would be no surprise to me.. just like they killed the Sh*ttle. I just hope that with the A320's they'll put the ovens back in too so there can be true F service as opposed to what they did with the ex-Sh*ttle 737's.
