United Airlines, Inc. is a major American airline headquartered at the Willis Tower in Chicago, Illinois. United operates a large domestic and international route network spanning cities large and small across the United States and all six inhabited continents.

Over ninety years ago, at the dawn of commercial aviation, four companies merged into a single airline that became a preeminent U.S. carrier. With this consolidation of Boeing Air Transport, Pacific Air Transport, National Air Transport, and Varney Air Lines by 1931, United Air Lines was formed.

William E. Boeing United Airlines dates to 1929, when William E. Boeing (1881–1956), Frederick B. Rentschler (1887–1956), and their associates founded United Aircraft Transport Corporation, a conglomerate of both aircraft manufacturing and air transport.

Reliability. Out of nine U.S.-based carriers, United ranked eighth for on-time performance, according to a 2020 analysis by OAG, a provider of air travel data. United departed or arrived within 15 minutes of its scheduled times only 76% of the time. When it comes to lost baggage, United ranks in the middle of the pack.

1st Answer Example "I have a particular interest in your airline because of your strong reputation in the industry and the dedication you have to positive customer experiences. I have flown your airline as a first choice for the past 5 years and have not been disappointed in the quality service delivered.

Working in the aviation industry can give me an opportunity to interact with people from different countries, build strong global connections and experience new cultures. I thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative environment, and the aviation industry promises just that."

United Airlines is the third largest airline in the world, with 86,852 employees (which includes the entire holding company United Airlines Holdings) and 721 aircraft. It was the brainchild of William Boeing and emerged from his consolidation of numerous carriers and equipment manufacturers from 1928 to 1930.

Route network & ultra long haul flying However, United almost unarguably has the most global route network. Not only does the airline serve so many destinations across six continents, but United also isn't afraid to experiment with new ultra long haul flights, which American and Delta shy away from.
