Kirby last week blamed the FAA for recent flight cancellations.<\/p>\n<p>United Airlines is also working with Port Authority of New York and New Jersey to get more gates, Kirby said, adding that the company would have to further change or reduce its schedule give itself more spare gates and buffer, particularly during storm season.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAirlines can plan for things like hurricanes, sub-zero temperatures and snowstorms, but United has never seen an extended limited operating environment like the one we saw this past week at Newark,\u201d Kirby said in a note to employees.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p> (Reporting by Anirudh Saligrama in Bengaluru; Editing by David Gregorio)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/uncategorized\/united-airlines-ceo-aims\/attachment\/file-photo-united-airlines-plane-at-newark-liberty-international-airport-2\/\"><\/a><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<p><h2>Heading into 2024, many voters aren\u2019t feeling positive about the economy under Biden.<\/h2>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<p><h2>One America\u2019s Monica Paige is joined by a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/cuomo-to-partially-reopen-indoor-dining-in-nyc-for-valentines-day-if-positivity-rates-hold\/\" title=\"Cuomo To Partially Reopen Indoor Dining In NYC For Valentine\u2019s Day, \u2018If Positivity Rates Hold\u2019\">small business owner<\/a> for his insight on the state of the economy.<\/h2>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<p><h2>One America\u2019s Bridget Bosco speaks with a Front Royal, VA mom and community organizer, Colleen DeLaFleur, about parents\u2019 efforts to get pornographic and objectionable books out of the public library.<\/h2>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<p><h2>One America\u2019s Bridget Bosco speaks with actor Jim Caviezel, who plays Tim Ballard in \u201cSound of Freedom.\u201d<\/h2>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<p><h2>President Trump is heading to Pickens, South Carolina on Saturday to celebrate Independence Day.<\/h2>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<p><h2>The pay and benefits details of nearly 2,000 staff members of DAA, which operates Ireland\u2019s Dublin airport, were compromised due\u2026<\/h2>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<p><h2>Exchange operator Cboe on Friday refiled an application with the U.S. securities regulator to launch\u2026<\/h2>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<p><h2>Google has hired Brazilian former President Michel Temer to lobby lawmakers considering a proposal to regulate the internet, his adviser said\u2026<\/h2>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<p><h2>Apple Inc\u2019s stock market value ended a trading session above $3 trillion for the first\u2026<\/h2>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>United Airlines CEO Scott Kirby announced plans to modify flight operations to prevent weather-related disruptions during the upcoming Fourth of July holiday travel.
