Yep - And United (from what it seems like) has been two steps ahead of AA, putting in major orders for widebody planes. And air taxis now too..... lol

I used to view United as a crappy airline somewhere between Frontier and Delta, but they have been making an effort over the recent years to elevate their image. If that means they expand their presence at O'Hare, which helps facilitate more improvements and expansions, I'm for it.

In a perfect world, AA would get their shit together and try to compete with United at O'Hare. I don't want the airport to be dominated by a single airline.
