IAD-FLL direct flight is now an 8+ hours!!!



Upgrades for my kids upcoming flights from IAD to FLL have just been cleared, but the email shows take off time at 12:00 pm and arrival time at 8:26 pm.

IAD to LHR does not even take that long!

20 hours actually. 12am, not 12 pm.

It's an IT glitch.

Can’t we merge this with the UA IT display issues thread? Not a new problem at all, this has been ongoing for years.
