Over the last several years, United Airlines has taken the scissors to its own
schedule in a big way.

The carrier has reduced its service in Europe by
eliminating 14 airports over the last 12 years, with the list of European cities and airports including

• Belfast International
• Bergen
• Berlin Tegel
• Birmingham
• Copenhagen
• Glasgow
• Hamburg
• Istanbul
• Manchester
• Moscow Domodedovo
• Newcastle
• Oslo
• Prague
• Stuttgart

Berlin Tegel is a no-brainer – it has been closed for
more than three years. The factors for discontinuing service at the other
airports are varied. They include such things as passenger demand.

Moscow Domodedovo is also a no-brainer since many
airlines have discontinued service because of the war between Ukraine and
Russia.

United did resume
flights to Israel earlier this spring.

United did not comment on the discontinued service,
and it is unknown whether the airline will reinstate some of the routes to the
affected airports. For now, travelers will have to consider other airports or
other airlines.
