The extensive PDF timetable disappeared around Dec 2015, The online / app timetable disappeared around Nov 2020
Alternatives
UA's online timetable (no longer exists?)
UA's interactive route map (appears to not match COVID-19 era changes)
UA's cargo site This has a near-term focus but does show frequency / dates of the week. Look for links to
* Widebody Schedule
* Narrowbody Schedule
* UAX Schedule
* JV Schedule
paid external sources
OAG, ExpertFlyer, KVS, ....

What happened to the PDF timetable? I swear it was there recently (even if it only looked forward less than a month). Now I can't find it at all.

Weekend maintenance issue or perhaps UA has decided to drop making a PDF schedule. We'll need to wait a few days to see.

Not sure if this is a bug or intentional
But it seems like UA has done away with the PDF timetable they used to post on the website. They seemed to have removed the link on both the timetable page and on the cell phone/mobile services page.
I know they've largely gone the way of the dinosaur with the rise of web-enabled cell phones and mobile apps, but I still found them useful. Anyone else noticed this?

It was a very useful tool for me, and with my hatred for 739's, and my upcoming 4 roundtrips ORD-SFO, it's becoming hard to book away from them. I used to use this tool frequently to find wide body, and international 757's as my schedule is very very flexible...

yeah i noticed that too. i find that a huge detriment. right now i'm trying to plan a big multi-country vacation and it was hugely convenient to have the schedules all laid out. halfway through it disappeared and now i have to try every damn leg in the form and it's a huge PITA.
i miss the PDF.

Has anyone worked out a alternative? Is there a way to export from one of the PC apps, like the UA PC app (if that is still around) or the Star Alliance app?
For now at least Oneworld still has a pdf and a PC app, which is helpful for flight planning. Pity United retired this link abruptly. Sure enough, I found what is probably the last edition at the Internet Archive:
https://web.archive.org/web/20151207.../timetable.pdf
The schedule is to January 2nd, but temporarily its useful since the file was removed from the website.

I just noticed this week that the timetable is not available anymore on the website. I regularly consult the PDF, particularly for multi-segment trips to foreign countries where I don't know if UA flies there and to which airport. I keep it saved on my desktop. This is too bad if in fact it is being eliminated.

Has anyone asked UA via either calling or emailing or tweeting? If it is as useful as many have found, why not contacting them? Or even UA Insider?

no response to me (i asked via twitter DM 26DEC). to me, that's akin to hanging up on me if i called in... except worse, because both parties know that the message was received.

Surely the generation of that pdf (and perhaps even the publishing on the web) is (was) fully automated. Sad.

I'd like to believe that UAs crack team of web engineers looked at the use stats and recommended that it no longer be produced due to low usage. Even if automated there are some costs, and everything 99% of pax needs is searchable online.
