New summer service to Rapid City, South Dakota
In addition to the new year round services, United announced it will offer the only nonstop flight between New York and Rapid City, South Dakota. Beginning June 23, United will start summer service between New York/Newark and Rapid City, making it easier for customers to access popular outdoor destinations including Mount Rushmore National Memorial, Badlands National Park and Wind Cave National Park.

In February, United will begin operating its newly enhanced bank structure at O'Hare International Airport to shorten connection times and provide better access to more destinations for customers connecting through the carrier's Chicago hub. This operations enhancement, already in place at United's Houston hub, will enable United to greatly improve connectivity throughout its industry-leading global route network.

In 2017, United and United Express operated more than 1.6 million flights carrying more than 148 million customers.
