(TAN): United Airlines has announced plans to resume service on nearly 30 international routes in November, including flights to cities in Asia, Europe, and South America.
Additionally, the airline continues to rebuild its domestic and international network by offering customers service to popular leisure destinations in the Caribbean, Hawaii, Central America and Mexico. Even with these additions, United’s November schedule is still less than half of what it was this time last year.
“For the month of November, we have adjusted our capacity to add flying for leisure travel to warm weather and beach destinations in Florida, Mexico and the Caribbean,” said Patrick Quayle, United’s vice president of International Network and Alliances.
