Some of these responses are pretty funny but my response is Jeff Smisek... He fits the bill in my book.

1K, only twice

Plat, only once

GS = goose, with the FA keeping the drink topped off to "help" your liver?

On my 50 percent bonus on First Class fares, if the original mileage is an odd number, the bonus is not rounded up, but rather it's rounded down. So I'm getting screwed out of a mile each time this happens.

I think in addition to the prior responder anyone who prefers watered down orange juice to luke warm orange juice. Also, most FA's. Personally I dislike ice in orange juice about as much as I dislike the taste of orange juice immediately after brushing my teeth.

That the AVOD music brouhaha has not been resolved and cannot listen to music on the long flights.

After having flown on UA a couple of times to what they anounce as "The Kingdom of Bahrain" aproximately 30 minutes before landing,I must say that I am extremely displeased by the uncivilised and downright rude procedure for the same when aproaching my beloved native Norway!!! Some might consider this a trifle,but believe me,-a royalist is a royalist,is,well,-enough said abouth this utterly tasteless practice,probably to much,actually!!

My second contribution:

The United iPhone App has "Welcome back, seanp7" on the first page, and then when I tap it for the detailed page, it has "Welcome, seanp7!"

1. The exclamation mark on the second greeting seems bizarre, insincere, and it just bothers me. Besides, no one at United would ever be that enthusiastic.
2. Stop welcoming me, I'm already in the App, you don't have to say it twice (and this isn't a Moe's).

The United app in iPad doesn't have a landscape mode... that's always bugged me

The lack of the plural "days" in FareLock.

"No thanks, hold my reservation for 7-day.
Yes, automatically purchase my reservation in 7-day at the end of my FareLock."

Shrinking cheese
 
I noticed in the UC today that the packages of cheese have shrunk by 33%. What was a two bite 3/4 oz package of cheese is now a very thin 1/2 oz package.
