If you want to go to Florida this winter, you should have no
problem booking a flight on United Airlines.
United has increased its service to the Sunshine State.
In fact, the carrier is boasting that it offers more flights
than it ever has to Florida.
It is doing so by increasing its service to Florida by more
than 20 percent, and utilizing larger planes with more seating capacity. The
airline will operate its hub system if there are no direct flights from where
you are, including Chicago, Washington, Houston, and Newark.
And for those customers who prefer snow over sand, the
airline remains the nation’s largest carrier to popular ski destinations, with
direct flights this winter to 11 different winter sports hubs, including
Jackson Hole, Vail and Big Sky.
But Florida is where the heat is.
According to United’s research, Miami and Orlando are two of
the top five most-searched destinations. Honolulu, Cancun and Las Vegas round
out the top five most-searched destinations from November 1 to March 31.
United will fly to virtually every major destination in
Florida, including Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Orlando, Key West, Tampa and Fort
Myers, among others.
"We know that November is when most people start their
winter travel planning so we're adding these flights to give customers more
options than ever," said Mark Weithofer, United's Managing Director of
Domestic Network Planning. "We've already begun to see record-breaking
demand for winter travel and whether customers are looking to unwind on the
beach or hit the slopes, United is the clear choice for those planning their
getaways."
Tickets are on sale now. Check with United for the best

Increasing the number of flights to Florida is part of
United’s growth plan, including possibly relocating its headquarters from Chicago
to Denver.
