Yeah, like I ever want to fly with this UA again. Guess what. The 10:10 from Monterey to LA left a good 50 minutes later than it should have done. And after rushing to catch the LA flight (with a couple of minutes to spare) we then sat on the tarmac for another 80 minutes while they put fuel in the plane. That's eight flights in twelve days, every single one of which was either delayed in take off, or getting in to the gate after landing. I'm spending the next nine hours composing the complaint letter from hell. N -- Internet connection, $19.95 a month. Computer, $799.95. Modem, $149.95. Telephone line, $24.95 a month. Software, free.
