Connecting People to the World
Fly with United Airlines to Washington and connect to more than 200 destinations across the Americas
United Airlines has a rich aviation history, finding its roots in the air mail service of Walter T. Varney that was launched between Nevada and Washington in 1926 and is ultimately a combination of carriers that have merged since the 1930s. The acquisition of Continental Airlines in 2010 was, however, the biggest of these mergers, ultimately boosting United’s reach and influence.
