• Becoming the first airline to fly with Boeing’s Split Scimitar winglets, which reduce fuel consumption by up to 2 percent; United is the largest Split Scimitar winglet customer today.

Agar Yunayted o'zining 2017 yilgi Global ishlash majburiyati maqsadlariga javob bermasa, aviakompaniya tegishli korporativ hisoblar uchun kompensatsiya to'laydi.
