United added four domestic routes to its 2027 schedule last week, a spokesperson confirmed to AirlineGeeks. Three of the new flights will depart from the carrier’s California hubs.
The airline will begin seasonal service from Los Angeles and San Francisco to Traverse City, Michigan, on June 19. Both routes will operate with Boeing 737-800s on Saturdays through Sept. 11, with additional flights on select Wednesdays. The additions will give Cherry Capital Airport nonstop service to all seven of United’s mainland hubs.
These additional routes were first flagged as part of last week’s Cirium Diio schedule update.
United will also fly year-round between San Francisco and Jacksonville, Florida, beginning March 29. The carrier will operate the route on Mondays and Fridays with a Boeing 737-800. Jacksonville Aviation Authority CEO Mark VanLoh said the Bay Area was “one of our largest unserved markets.”
San Francisco will become United’s sixth hub with nonstop service from Jacksonville.
The first of the four routes will start March 4, when United adds twice-daily flights between Lancaster, Pennsylvania, and Washington Dulles. The service restores a connection previously flown by Southern Airways Express. Southern’s Dulles flights ended in June when SkyWest began flying between Lancaster and Chicago O’Hare under the United Express banner as part of a federal Essential Air Service contract.
