1/18 UA 895 ORD-HKG (N797UA) looks like it returned to gate and now is showing a mechanical delay with an estimated departure of 1805 and arrival into HKG 0027 (+2).
The tag flight UA 895 HKG-SIN is now showing a delay of 3 hours with a departure time of 0045 and arrival into SIN at 0412. Looks a bit optimistic on that departure time unless they can pick up time on ORDHKG.

...and 839 LAX-SYD goes MX once again Sunday night.
Gotta start to wonder how United's record on cancellations to Australia compares to Delta or Qantas.

Not to mention the configuration of the middle seats in the PMCO aircraft C cabin.

Flight returned to gate twice - first time due to maintenance and second time due to crew time-out. The flight was then cancelled and we were accommodated on an extra section the next day. Total delay was approximately 21 hours. This was UA 869 SFO-HKG on Dec 17.
What compensation do you think should be expected as someone who has no status and someone who is premier gold? United is offering $200 voucher or 10k points but this seems really low given all the inconvenience in this situation.

UA 981/19 delayed 45 minutes. The KWI contractor is just unable to get this flight out in time. Lots of connections at IAD to DEN/SFO and LAX missed.

1/19 UA#895 HKG to SIN 7 hours late! Waited from 9pm to 4 am!
Haven't heard from them yet.
What's the best way to complain? Address and link? What to expect for compensation?
They canceled my flight day before from LAX to NRT. offered $175.

I don't know why UA does it this way to be perfectly honest with you, the flight per say wasn't cancelled. There was essentially an equipment swap. UA is subbing a 767-400 in place of the 767-300. I don't know why they have to show the original flight as cancelled.

Perhaps because the 767-400 is sCO and the 767-300 is sUA, and they operate under different flight numbers?
