I saw Spidey-themed UA banners at ORD when I flew home a couple weeks ago. This only makes sense. I like the photo of Stan at the beginning.

c’mom everybody. ‘forced upon” really? I can’t be the only business person on FlyerTalk. Have you stopped attending all sporting events? Dozens of cross promotions are “forced upon you every SECOND there is no action! It’s so good to know who is the “official” taco, car dealer, insurance, airline, hotel, car rental company, popcorn ,hotdog etc of every team in every sport! Should we talk about TV? How about those 15 promotions forced upon us before a movie is played at the local theatre? All of this is what makes the world go round. I think a lot of these comments belong in the thread of “most trivial things to complain about”.

Even if you didn't enjoy/appreciate/like having Spiderman in the video, you watched it and it made enough of an impact that you posted a comment on flyertalk. Hopefully, you got some of the safety information for the aircraft you were on as well.Great job United! Flyers are watching the video. Safety first!!

We received the 'clean the world' tin cans out of LAX earlier this week (the ones with the thin lid that pops off, not the two metal cases that slide together). I was hoping for the Spider Man ones to pass on to the kids, but it seems not yet.

We were surpisred since we got the newest rectangular shaped dark gray colored kits with the polaris logo embossed on them on the outbound EWR-CDG, but the tin cans on the CDG-EWR return on Sunday. Maybe UA is trying to flush out the last of the remnants.
Consistently inconsistent UA.
Spiderman kits are probably a myth..

PEK-IAD (a few days later) - rectangular zippered pouch.
No spidey anything except for the video, which I think you have to be a spiderman fan to appreciate fully (which I'm not).

No Superman for me
Flight 932 IAD-FRA had neither the Superman safely video nor the Superman amenity kit. Old school black/white Saks half moon bag was what we got, along with the"de nada" safety video.

Got the new amenity kit today EWR-PRG. There is a blue version and a red version, and other than the contents you wouldn’t know it was a spider-man kit. Extremely attractive faux-leather pouch that might be my favorite United kit ever. Stamped around the outside with various old school destination stamps.
As for the contents...hilarious. Spidey socks and mask. Everyone seemed to love them.
