Thanks to all of you, from baggage to cockpit, FA to GA for helping me through my too-many-segments this year....

Thank you all. I'll be flying on Thanksgiving (and Christmas) but I bet I'll be at least 30 flight levels above the highest-flying turkey!

Thank you UA staff for all your hard work and for putting up with us. I'll be seeing some of you Sunday evening for my next flight out...

I'll be riding a UA bird on Thanksgiving too, and hope to be under your command!

Happy Thanksgiving to you and to all at UA who get us where we want to go safely.

Ya just never know! Stick your head in the pointy end and see if the cap has argyle socks, a patriotic tie, and a super-clashy Swatch on.

That'd be me.

I think any kind of wrapped goodies are fine. I wouldn't turn it down!

Nice gesture. I'm sure your crews would be appreciative!

For the first time in a few years I won't be working on Thanksgiving. Indeed, I don't even work for UA(X) anymore...

But Happy Thanksgiving to all who do work to keep the operation running smoothly!

Hey PWMRamper...good to hear from you. Hope things are going well for you in your new role.

I am also one that will be on board for UA Thanksgiving fun...TPAC for me.

I will add my thanks to all my UA friends working tomorrow, which allows me to head out for a well deserved vacation.

As for the question about a "goodie" for the crew, I am planning on Starbucks gift cards. No worries about being tampered with and I have to believe there is a Starbucks in just about every airport by now, so easy to use for them.

Not sure I can float the $ for the entire 747 crew, but you can be sure the Upper Deck staff will get one.

Cheers !

I'd also like to extend my sincere thanks to all of the United employees who have helped me get safely from A to B. I'm sure this year has been particularly challenging, but despite that, I've always warm smiles and friendly service.
