Crossing the USA by Train

In my (dated) experience with united, they have a fanstasy-land flight schedule they sell tickets for, then cancel flights that aren’t full “due to weather”, and rebook you on an inferior flight.

This way, they never have to pay people when they get bumped for overbooking.

Anyway, I haven’t done business with them for a decade for this exact reason. Maybe it’s different now.

I have over a million miles on United and flew them almost exclusively for over a decade with dozens of flights a year at peak. Not my experience FWIW.

I hate flying United, but this is not a real thing.
