UA employees are very helpful. It's comfortable to travel. It's reliable, quick and not hectic to travel. That's the reason I choose UNITED AIRLINES all the time.

As someone who flies United a lot, I love this app. It is very user-friendly and easy to navigate. Booking flights is easy, and you can view how many miles you have accrued if you are a member of the United Miles program. 5 stars!

United Airlines, is by far the best I've ever taken my entire LIFE of traveling by air. First, the take-off from LA to Hawaii was extremely smooth. Get this, the plane didn't shake, wobble, and I didn't hear that loud excruciating engine noise piercing my eardrums. The plane was clean, the staff and crew were exceptional. My breakfast was scrumptious (Buttered Banana Pancakes) Say WHAT! Oh I did splurge on this one, first class baby. Finally, The Landing was worthy of a STANDING OVATION!!!

App used 1 GB of mobile data in a day, costing me $10! (Google Fi) Version installed Aug 23, prior to the update available now (Aug 29) but watch out! I'd clicked through to get Lyft to airport, then used it for gate information and international arrival info, but it should have been on airport or United Wi-Fi for much of that. Otherwise, app worked relatively well, and the terminal guide feature re: navigating security, border control, and customs was useful though rather hidden.
