GBGreat airline and the website is top notch. United isn't perfect but then again, what airline isn't? I was a faithful flyer based on my travel in a few destinations. Flew ~2-4 one ways each week for a few years. Always booked directly through the website. When you hit status, its great! Unlike some other airlines, they'll never leave a first class seat empty. They'll fill it with those that not only have the most segments, but highest revenue profile (from what I saw). It asks a few more questions than others (Southwest) but once you get into the groove of using it, you barely notice the extra clicks. Not a huge deal. Their mobile apps were sketchy back in 2011-2013 but the recent updates are great! Never hit a problem with it since ~2015.

ECAbsolutely horrible experience Absolutely horrible experience. Been in Quito for 2 days now without my bags, after being told our bags were on the flight last night heading to Quito we find out they have not even left Houston. Been on the phone all day and we still have not gotten a decent answer to where or when our bags will arrive. United you are the worst airline and we will never book with you again.

GBAwful Booking Process and Customer Service I haven't even flown with United yet, but so far they've made me re-book my flights 3 times, and there's still another 3 months before I fly. I booked a return flight to the US from the UK in January, I went on-line in March to check some details to find that my flights had been changed and my seat upgrades had been cancelled with no refund. So I re-upgraded and chose new seats, a month later I checked again, the flights had changed again, still no warning or refund, so yet another, re-select the seats and pay the upgrade fee again, 1 month later, same thing. Each time I re-upgrade my seats my bank charges me £1.50 for each transaction (United put each seat on each flight through individually from the US whereas the original booking was taken from the UK). In terms on transaction costs alone I'm down around £18, if you add to that the fact that not a single cancelled seat hasn't been refunded then it's around £250. I feel a small claims court action coming on.

GBFirst Flight, Last Flight. Aside from the recent scandal United Airlines is literally the worst airline I've ever flown with. The only impressive this is how consistently bad they are at literally every area that constitutes a good flight experience. Incompetence like that takes dedication. Hats off to you United, I will never be flying with you again.

GBTerrible service for premium Polaris… Terrible service for premium Polaris price. ORD to LHR for over $6000. Seat changed twice due to aircraft changes, they claim. Seems to me it’s not rocket science to have an algorithm that maintains seating choices and preferences when aircrafts change? Bag drop off also a pain. Then to the Polaris longe seated lunch? No spaces available, sorry. Terrible all around. Waste of money. Premium price for ordinary service or even poorer.
