I’m confused by the chart that says you have to pay for seat selection on United. I fly United all the time and have never paid to select my seat. Does that mean that $14 to $109 is built in to the price or that they’re going to start adding that?

Fine...pull the free food; it's crap anyway. But, in return, I need to be able to bring my own food and drinks. And, I don't mean stopping for whatever they're passing off as food in the airport. I mean making myself a lunch or snack at home and being allowed to bring it on board.

Or, and this will blow people's minds...make the food available to be bought in airports palatable. Anyone ever try to eat in EWR's Terminal C (Continental)? I have...many times...it's not easy especially when I don't eat fast food. Then we can talk about the Southwst terminal in PHL, or anything they serve at RDU.
