Dave,

And HOW long have you been flying that ghastly airline??

You know what Oscar Wilde said about third marriages being "a triumph of hope over experience"... I think it's sorta like that to entrust your travel arrangements to United Airlines... sigh!!

I only book them when there is almost NO other choice. And even then, I *expect* to get shafted.

(Like Braniff, they're usually pretty fair once in the air... but DAMN they're awful, ground-side...!)

We showed up at Narita and was told that our reservation were cancelled on 24 August. Funny I checked with United on 5 Sept and they were all intact and we started our trip on 6 Sept.
They blamed our agent who -- a good friend -- said the hell I did.
