United Airlines expands its international schedule from its hubs in Chicago, Denver, New York/Newark, and San Francisco, and adds flights to key European destinations.

More European Destinations

Beginning May 20, United will be the only airline offering nonstop daily service between the United States and Palermo, Italy, the capital city of Sicily and United’s fifth Italian destination: the most of any U.S. airline. Service to Nice and Palermo is subject to government approval.

United will also begin daily nonstop year-round service between Chicago O’Hare and Zurich on March 28, 2020. Offering the most flights of any U.S. airline to Switzerland, United will operate services between Chicago and Zurich with its premium 46 Polaris business class Boeing 767-300ER aircraft. From Chicago, United Airlines operates to more year-round international destinations in Europe, Asia, and South America than any airline. The new service will complement existing flights from New York/Newark, San Francisco, and Washington.

The airline has also added flights between New York/Newark and Amsterdam and Frankfurt, Germany. The additional flights, beginning March 28, 2020, will enable more customers from across the United States to easily connect to Amsterdam and Frankfurt. United will operate its second daily year-round Frankfurt service with a Boeing 767-300ER aircraft with 46 United Polaris business class seats, and its second daily seasonal flight to Amsterdam with a Boeing 767-300ER aircraft featuring 30 United Polaris business class seats.

Subject to government approval, United will also expand services between Denver and London to year-round, beginning Nov. 1, 2019, with Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner aircraft. United is the only carrier offering both nonstop trans-Atlantic and trans-Pacific flights from Denver.

New Delhi Goes Year-Round

The carrier is also extending its seasonal San Francisco-New Delhi service to a year-round route from December 5, 2019, using a Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner aircraft.
