United Airlines  announced it is tripling the size of its August schedule compared to its June 2020 schedule, adding nearly 25,000 domestic and international flights compared to July 2020, and plans to fly 40% of its overall schedule in August, as compared to August 2019.

United has already added back its Kona to San Francisco roundtrip flight.  Starting in August, United says it plans to increase service between Hawaii and its hubs in Chicago, Denver, Houston, Los Angeles and San Francisco, including flights between Lihue and San Francisco, and Hilo and Los Angeles.    The nonstop flight between Kona and Denver will also resume.

According to the TSA, more than 600,000 passengers passed through airport security checkpoints on Monday, June 29, the first time since March 19 that those numbers exceeded 25% of pre-COVID levels.

Like most airlines, United says it has put enhanced cleaning procedures and protection measures in place to keep passengers and staff safe.   It will also allow passengers to change their flight if the flight on which they are booked is “fairly full,” with no penalties or fees.
