Why?
A year ago they also had no plane to merge with UA yet.

im not sure theres a correlation between the end of pretzels and merge with united. theyre explaining it as a plain and simple cost cutting measure

C'mon.
And the fact CO lost meals at mealtime? First on medium-hauls and now even on long-hauls and Hawaii flights?
Is that also coincidental or an assignment with UA policies?
