While this is just a brief summary, and is subject to change, all new United Airlines employees participate in a complete orientation program to facilitate a smooth transition into our company. In October 2000, United waived all company fees associated with the travel benefit, with the exception of International First Class. Now employees can begin enjoying their travel benefits the day they start. All pass travel is on a space-available basis.
Employees also receive a limited number of companion tickets to use for friends and extended family.
Your eligibility for a plan depends on your location. For expenses not covered by these plans, United offers a Flexible Spending Account program.

We also have a non-profit organization, the Mainliner Club, that arranges, promotes and sponsors social and sport activities for employees.
