TAKE TIME TO READ THIS. IT WAS A REAL BAD EXPERIENCE.

Things i hate about UNITED.

1. They change direct flights to flights with stop overs with little notice.

2. They charge there economy customers $6 US or AUD for an alcoholic drink.

3. They have a checked baggage weight limit of 50 pounds per bag and a $200 US fee for each bag you check in that weighs more than 50 pounds.

4. The terminal at LAX (Gate 71) stinks like urine and the overhead airvents are covered in mould. I'm not talking about one vent, i'm talking about all of them.

5. The seating room in economy is ok for a small child, but not for a 500+ pound, 6"4' tall man.

6. There staff are rude and are not helpful.

7. They covered my wifes brand new suitcase in some sort of oil or grease (they have given us a voucher to have it cleaned at there expense)

They suck. I thought that Qantas was bad, but Qantas Economy is like business class vs United Economy.

If any of you are going to visit Australia, fly on Qantas. Here is why:

All drinks including alcoholic are included in the ticket price. United make you pay $6 US or AUD for one alcoholic drink.

Qantas has a checked baggage limit of 70 pounds per bag, United has 50 pounds per bag.

Qantas has more leg room.

Qantas has in flight enertainment in all of it's seats. It's on demand movies, games and music. United you are stuck watching one of 12 screens in the roof and have to watch whatever they are showing.

Qantas staff are polite, helpful and would go the extra mile to help you. United staff would not even urinate on you if you were on fire.

So you had a good time but bad travel? Sadly most airports in the US have gone that route since 9-11.

Well, I sure wonder about some people's idea of international travel. 50lbs? 70lbs? For luggage?? My wife and I travelled to Europe for 6 weeks, had a hell of a good time, and brought quite a bit of stuff back. We had an under-seat bag each. Period. When the bags filled up, we shipped the stuff back to ourselves for a few bucks a box, it was all waiting for us when we got back.

That philosophy paid off again and again: go through customs carrying the one bag, nothing else, and the customs gestapo just let you pass. We got caught in a train strike, which required us to hike about 1/4 mile for an alternative line: easy, we just grabbed our bags and went, leaving the Others to scramble about looking for their stuff and luggage wagons. They missed the connection, we didn't. Looking for a hotel/B&B didn't mean having to come back to retrieve our luggage, it came with us.

There are too many alternatives. In the old days, (and maybe again, soon) one paid for ANY luggage. Air freight is cheap. Laundromats are everywhere. Drinking on an airplane never enhances the trip, and promotes jetlag. We travelled to see Europe, not for Europe to see us!

However, diff'rent stokes for diff'rent folks, I guess...

I've had bad luck with United on several occasions. I always try NOT to fly them, especially if I have to go through Chicago/Ohare. *shudders*

annoys the fuck out of me when people use "of" in place of "have" after verbs such as could, would, should, might and must...."would of been", it's "would have been" MFs...
