UNITED AND US AIRWAYS CONTINUE TO ENHANCE MARKETING AGREEMENT

Route network further expanded with additional code-share flights
ARLINGTON, Va., Feb. 11, 2003 -- United and US Airways continue to enhance their marketing partnership with additional code-share flights now available for sale, the fourth wave of flights since the code share was introduced in January 2003.

Through this new phase of code sharing, United customers now have expanded access to 131 new flight segments, including US Airways’ east coast Shuttle market. US Airways customers now are able to travel on 126 new flight segments in the eastern and southeastern United States, including Atlanta and Baltimore from Denver and Chicago. More code-share flights will be introduced later in February and beyond.

United will continue to expand its network by placing its code on US Airways flights within the eastern U.S. and on select international flights including US Airways’ expanding Caribbean route network. US Airways will add routing options for customers whose destinations are in the western U.S., as well as international travelers headed for Asia, Europe, and Latin America.

Beginning Feb. 13, United and US Airways initiate code-share service on flights that were introduced last month. That includes United’s code on US Airways flights between Philadelphia and the following cities: Hartford, Conn.; Buffalo, N.Y.; Charlotte, N.C. ; Columbus, Ohio; Washington Reagan National; Denver; Indianapolis; Miami; Chicago O’Hare, Pittsburgh; Providence, R.I; Raleigh-Durham, N.C.; Richmond, Va.; San Juan, Puerto Rico; and St. Thomas, Virgin Islands. Also beginning operations this week with the United code are US Airways flights between Buffalo and both Charlotte and Pittsburgh. Code-share service is only available to connecting customers in the Philadelphia – Chicago, Philadelphia – Denver and Philadelphia – Washington Reagan markets.

The US Airways code will be placed on United flights between Washington Dulles and the following cities: Denver; Las Vegas; Oakland and San Jose, Calif.; Chicago O’Hare; Portland, Ore.; Phoenix; San Diego and Seattle. US Airways’ code also will be introduced in Spokane, Wash., and Las Vegas from Denver and Chicago; and Ontario, Calif., from Denver.
