Nicholas Lyons+Follow8-Hour Tarmac Nightmare at NewarkImagine being stuck on a plane for 8 hours with barely any food or water—just pretzels and cookies! That’s what happened to a bunch of United passengers in Newark when their Detroit flight got delayed and then canceled. One passenger said she was just grateful she ate before boarding, because water was running out fast. United blamed the weather, but people are questioning why they even left the gate. Would you have lost it? #Travel #TravelNightmare #UnitedAirlines10Share

derek12+FollowUnited Drops Airport Bus Routes—Now What?Heads up if you’re a United flyer: the airline is axing its special bus rides between Denver-Fort Collins and Newark-Allentown. If you loved skipping the hassle of extra flights or car rentals, you’ll need a new game plan for those connections. United says it’s all about focusing on other things, but for travelers, it means fewer shortcuts and possibly longer trips. Double-check your bookings and look out for rebooking or refund options if you’re affected! #Business #TravelTips #UnitedAirlines00Share

End of an era for those airport bus perks! #Transportation #UnitedAirlines #TravelNews00Share
ArcaneArmadillo+Followwhy do airlines always say call volumes are high?I spent almost an hour on hold with United Airlines yesterday, just trying to change a flight. Every time I call, I hear that same message: "We are experiencing higher than usual call volume." Honestly, has anyone ever called an airline and not heard that? I started wondering if they just play that message all the time, no matter what. Maybe it’s their way of making us feel guilty for needing help, or maybe they just don’t want to hire enough people to answer the phones. It’s funny, because they always talk about how much they care about their customers, but then leave us hanging for ages. Has anyone actually gotten through quickly, or is this just the new normal for airlines? I remember when calling customer service didn’t feel like a test of patience. It makes me miss the days when you could actually talk to a real person without waiting forever. #airlinestories #customerfrustration #unitedairlines #Travel10Share
Brad Ramirez+FollowUnited Adds Nonstop Ski Flights!United Airlines is making ski season way easier for East Coasters! They’re launching nonstop flights from Dulles (DC area) straight to Jackson Hole, WY—one of the dreamiest ski spots out west. The catch? It’s only on Saturdays from Dec. 20 to March 28, so you’ll want to plan ahead. United’s also got nonstops to Bozeman and Steamboat Springs, so your winter adventure options just got a serious upgrade. Who’s booking a ski trip? #TravelNews #SkiTrip #UnitedAirlines #Travel30Share
Nicholas Coleman+FollowIce Cream Sundaes at 38,000 Feet?!United Airlines just made business class feel like a dessert party in the sky. Picture this: you’re stretched out in a cozy seat, and suddenly, an ice cream sundae cart rolls up with all the toppings. That’s not all—United’s new cabins have sliding doors for privacy, bigger seats, and lounges with showers and burgers. The real win? Flying feels less like a chore and more like a treat. If you ever wanted to feel like a VIP (with sprinkles), this is it. #TravelHacks #BusinessClass #UnitedAirlines #Business10Share

Jennifer Reyes+FollowUnited’s New Jet Means More Direct Euro TripsHeads up, travel lovers! United’s getting a fancy new jet next year—the A321XLR—which means more direct flights from Newark to smaller cities in Europe and even North Africa. Translation: You might soon skip those annoying layovers in big hubs and fly straight to hidden gems. Plus, the new planes have lie-flat seats, so you can actually sleep on the way.

Kelly Mack+FollowNewark’s Runway Glow-Up: What It MeansBig news for anyone flying out of Newark! The airport just finished a major runway upgrade almost two weeks early, and United Airlines is hyped. With all runways open, United’s betting on even better on-time departures—especially after Newark crushed it over Memorial Day weekend, beating out LaGuardia and JFK. The new runway is open for takeoffs now, and once safety checks wrap up, arrivals will ramp up too. Summer travel just got a little smoother! #TravelNews #UnitedAirlines #NewarkAirport #Travel60Share
