United Is Finally Bringing Back This Service for Travelers, as of April 14
The carrier is beefing up its offerings in a major way.
When the pandemic suddenly disrupted the travel industry in spring 2020, airports fell largely silent and planes flew with plenty of vacant seats (not to mention the middle seats blocked out entirely for social distancing purposes). Amid so much uncertainty and restrictions on travel—plus significantly reduced demand—airlines slashed flights from their schedules. But with Covid in retreat and travel demand roaring back, United is bringing back some of its former offerings, and boosting others, meaning overall many more options for travelers. Ready on to find out the details of the carrier's plans.

Much of United's expanded nonstop service is slated to roll out in May and June.
United will resume domestic flights from SFO to Atlanta on May 6, and from SFO to Anchorage and Columbus, Ohio, on June 3. Internationally, United plans to restart its nonstop service from SFO to Amsterdam on April 14; SFO to Zurich on May 6; and SFO to and from Calgary on June 3.
"As the largest airline carrier in the Bay Area, United can connect customers to far off destinations like Paris, London, and Sydney, but we also want to offer more convenient flight options for customers who are traveling closer to home," United spokesperson Maddie King said, according to the outlet.

United is also upping the frequency of flights from SFO to multiple major West Coast cities beginning on June 3. For instance, United's SFO service to Vancouver will go from twice per day to a whopping five times daily. Flights to Los Angeles international airport (LAX) will go from seven times daily to nine.
Other West Coast cities will see one additional daily flight from SFO—that means seven daily nonstop to San Diego (from six) and Portland and Seattle to six (from five) each.
SFO isn't the only major airport to get new flights: Back in October, United announced five new international destinations coming to its flight offerings this summer with departures from the U.S. East Coast. The major expansion will include routes to Spain, Portugal, Norway, and Jordan.
