Earlier this year the IAD-LHR morning flight time changed by 30 minutes (went from ~9:20 to ~8:50) which meant that the 6am ORD-IAD departure no longer worked (though it was always a tight connection).

Agree, and I also like to see more frequencies between IAD and LGA instead of just two daily flights in each direction.

You think so? Any ETA on that? This will absolutely cause me to switch off of UA and *A and move to Sky Team if direct SFO-HAN flights ever come to pass.

IF they begin NA expansion you and I know the first destinations will be the coasts. LAX/SFO/JFK .

Bring back DXB
PBI to IAD. More choices rather than going to EWR.

EWR - SJC.
CO used to fly this route once a day but UA axed it after the merger. SJC is 10 minutes from my house, SFO 45.
It's the difference between taking Lyft/Uber vs taking the train or driving and paying to park :/

I wish I could fly to SNA, SFO, and HKG all from HPN
Not realistic. But I wish they flew those

I don't want to connect and don't want to fly ORD-HKG as they use the super sucky planes with 2-4-2 business
Also limited UA flights out of HPN in general.
And this is a wish,it's thread. That's my wish. Direct service from HPN for all places I go

You best make a wish to your airport commission first. With 6,550' runaway (and another under 4,500') HPN isn't going to handle an transoceanic (and some transcon) aircraft as the runways are too short..

My current most want (which usually changes based on my upcoming travel) are more EWR ULH flights. More specifically, EWR-HYD/CPT/JNB. Another Indian destination may be more realistic than people think. UA does so well on EWR-DEL/BOM that it may think another Indian destination is worth a shot. Also, found a list online a couple months ago (can't remember where it was) and saw that HYD-DXB-JFK was one of EK's largest routes in terms of number of passengers.
