I take it on a good rumor that Rainey, crunching numbers as always on Lotus 1-2-3, has determined that rather than turning a sUA 757 INTO a can can fly it between hubs (and the CLE hub-let) collecting ECOSKIES bags as it goes where it will end up in DTW making mad coin on the MI $.10 refund.

Is this policy only for mainline flights or for the all flights? Because last year I was on a regional flight I requested a can but FA refused to give me a can.

According the applicable rule - vassal of my vassal is not my vassal - FA of the regional airline does not have to bow to UA's policies and procedures. She properly denied you access to her cans.

UA club bartender at EWR said NO can also
I'm at the upstairs UA Club at EWR on Tuesday at 8:30am. I don't drink coffe but needed caffeine. I asked for a whole can of Coke Zero and was told, NO, we can't give whole cans....So, I asked for two glasses instead....BTW, I always get full cans in the other UA Club at EWR
