What are UA's major and mini hubs?

Major: IAD, DEN, SFO, LAX, MIA, ORD, NRT, LHR
Mini: BOS, SEA (are any of the NYC airports hubs of UA)

I'm sure UA can consolidate hubs domestically and build more international hubs (where flights produce more margins).

How about HKG, PEK, TPE or CDG?

Well, more like:

Major: IAD, DEN, SFO, LAX, ORD
Mini: SEA, MIA, NRT
Cities with large precense: BOS, JFK, LHR

The rest of the cities only have a few flights a day (HKG, TPE, CDG, etc..) As to why I differentiate between JFK and for instance SEA in terms of mini vs. small city. Is that in SEA, the flights are timed to be connecting with other UA flights (not-codeshare)(i.e., the ANC, NRT, Spokane, YVR, etc..) whereas in JFK they aren't.
