Sorry for the slightly off-topic question, but does anyone know when DEN-MIA/FLL was discontinued?

This is an absoluately great news.

I only wish the east bound flights to TPA and MIA could be later in the morning so passengers can connect from flights originated from Asia.

This is a great restart of services to Florida.

Very interesting that they opted to not make the flights red-eyes going east so the west bound departure time could be early and enable connections to Asia. Especially since MIA and TPA have 0 Asian flights.

Great news though. The MIA flight was long overdue and the TPA one was a great announcement as well.

Looks like the SFO-MIA is running for less than a month? Only 12/16 to 1/3??

SFO-FLL

It looks like United is discontinuing nonstop service from SFO-FLL in September.

SFO-MIA is LONG overdue. Finally some competition on this route. (Kinda weird for UA) No more days of flying with no status on AA in the back of the plane because of "Priority" economy seats.

not sure how to find info on this, but is it beyond seasonal? this current state of connecting through EWR ex-WAS just to stay on UA is a PIT_.

Long overdue, but only 1x 738 on SFO-MIA? UA is going to get crushed by AA flying 763s on the route.
