UA1 (SFO-SIN) cancelled for maintenance.
After sitting on the plane for 2.5 hours they announced it was cancelled and a special segment tomorrow departing at 945pm is being added.
I've said it before and I will say it again...I *HATE* the 787. It is a piece of crap airplane that breaks down constantly. I try to avoid these planes at all costs but my company put me on the non-stop and I was happy to try it.
I'm glad I'm moving to SIN. I will never fly this flight again.
And on top of it, SFO-PVG cancelled earlier today. I was told that for that flight they only had 30 hotel rooms to give out to an entire 747. Guess how many were available for SFO-SIN pax? ZERO. We all got a form telling us we can get $200 refund if we mail in our receipts.
It's 145am in SFO and I have no hotel room as you can't book a hotel room for "last night" on any website and the Marriott Plat line is still not answering after 20 minutes on hold.

UA 881 ORD->NRT delayed 3 hours so far.
I have to think UA's numbers are gong to fall for July.

EDIT: UA2 (SIN-SFO) on 22July is cancelled due to no aircraft being available (my UA1 cancellation on 20July).
What's interesting is I can't find an extra segment from SIN-SFO. So where is this 789 going after the extra segment gets to SIN?

On my last 2 ORD-FRA flights we experienced an issue where the AC started to blow out hot air a few hours into the flight. On both flights the FA's were messing with a screen up in BF and finally got the temp under control. While this was going there was a strange noise coming from below our feet.

Originally (up until 10 minutes ago), #50 was operating UA 2061 and #64 was operating UA 1 tonight. Now #64 is operating UA 2061 and #63 is operating UA 1.
#64 arrived from TLV on Tuesday morning. It wasn't due to fly to SIN until Wednesday night. They only just found the computer issue when the pilots got to the plane I guess.
