UA 188

Left out on 188 on April 22...was 2 hours late taking off. Pilot refused to fly first plane, they found us another one and we were off, made up 1 hour in the air. Flight 187 comeing back on 5/5 no issues. Guess we got lucky with the cancelations.
 
United is my last choice anywhere. At times however, it’s my only choice based on destination. But at least they are getting some new planes.
 
Most people purchase airline tickets based on a combination of price, flight schedules and routing. I booked a trip to Seattle for my wife and I for this summer. Actually going to Juneau, Alaska, put will stay a couple days in Seattle. I purchased tickets on United back in February based on great price and great schedule. About a month after the purchase, United sent me a change notice and the schedule went from great to lousy. I spent a half hour on the phone and got a little better schedule at no additional cost.

Today, I received another change notice from United. Schedule changed to a very early departure and then a 5 hour layover in Denver. Any online change wanted to charge me significantly more money, so I phoned United and after another half hour or so was able to reduce the layover to 2 hours.

My trip is still several months off, so I am expecting United to make yet another change.
Air travel is the biggest rip off for the consumer. Pay in full and have no rights, no recourse, and no refunds!
I hope it works out for your next trip. All we can do is be flexible.

What a great way to kick off our 2025 hunting season in South Africa.

This beautiful Impala ram was taken at just over 300 yards, took a few steps and toppled over.

We are looking forward to the next week and a half of hunting with our first client of the year.

Do you have any more copies of African Dangerous Game Cartridges, Author: Pierre van der Walt ? I'm looking for one. Thanks for any information, John [redacted]
