United Express Flightplans Summer 2013 – Ghiom
United Express is a flight connection service brand name for the spoke-hub of U.S. mainline carrier United Airlines, under which twelve individually owned regional airlines operate short and medium haul feeder flights. Mainline carriers often use regional airlines to operate services in order to increase frequency, serve routes that would not sustain larger aircraft, or for other competitive reasons. They primarily connect smaller cities with United’s domestic hub airports and “focus cities,” although they offer some point-to-point service such as Sacramento to Eureka and intra-Florida flying between the Tampa and Ft. Lauderdale hubs.
