Most likely Terminal E somewhere? Get a room. But yeah, I like the fact that everything seems to be running on schedule. I go to Sky Harbour in Phoenix periodically and it seems they have been doing construction there for 20 years and counting. They are always building, destroying or improving upon SOMEthing. It's a pain to navigate through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nativehoustonion Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 United rolled out the new 777-300ER. It will have 60 Polaris business class seats. Cannot wait to see it. It will travel domestic market before doing international flights. United ordered 17 more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaxConcrete Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Every time I have checked the United weekend specials web site in recent months I have found the message " There are no United Specials this week." https://www.united.com/web/en-US/apps/booking/specials/default.aspx For a very long time (I'm thinking around 15 years) United was very consistent about nearly always having weekend specials, even on holiday weekends. But that has now stopped. Does anybody know what is going on? Is this a temporary suspension and regular weekend specials will return, or has United permanently diminished weekend specials?

Houston19514 Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Within the past 2 weeks, they have installed at least one jetway on the new Terminal C North. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkylineView Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Hilariously, and randomly, I came across the exact same thing two weeks ago. GTFO is an interesting ap for last minute deals. I'm not sure how many people can decide (on a Thursday) to do 8 days in Mexico City starting on Friday, but it's a cool idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nativehoustonion Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 The new 777-300ER will be seen today. It will fly domestic flights until January. The first route will be PVG to SFO and EWR to HKG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoustonBoy Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 I am shocked! This development is turning out much better than I imagined. It's finally starting to look like Houston is becoming a unique destination even at the airport. Terminals are always the first impression of a city for those flying in and I can't wait to see how the rest of the airport is going to turn out these next few years.

nativehoustonion Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 He is now president of United and I think he is running the airline. He posted new flights from ORD. Also larger planes going from EWR-ATL. Now he will focus on DFW. Very smart hired from American Airlines. I saw his video and is going to take business from DFW.

Just got an update from United in the last 24 hours. The remodeled C North United Club is scheduled to open early this summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Houston19514 Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 It appears that the new Terminal C North may be in the "soft opening" phase with the full grand opening slated for next month. Maybe we'll get some news coverage then... One presumes United will not issue a press release until the grand opening time, and with Houston news media, if there's no press release, there's no news.

Houston19514 Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 They knocked it out of the park with the new C North. It is beautiful. Great news: They are currently doing remodeling in Terminal E to make room for more of those great restaurants and retail shops. PS I'm glad one of the city's "news" providers finally got wind of the new Terminal C North. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
