United Airlines Honors America's Veterans & Their Families
United Continental Holdings Inc., the parent company of Continental Airlines, will soon expand its current 5% Continental.com discount benefit for Veterans Advantage members to flights booked on United.com in 2012.
In the meantime, both Continental and United Airlines-operated flights are covered by the Veterans Advantage discount, when booked directly at continental.com.
“We are delighted that our members will receive this valuable benefit from the merger of Continental Airlines and United,” said Veterans Advantage founder and CEO Scott Higgins, a Vietnam veteran. “Veterans Advantage members deserve the best, and we are pleased now the world’s #1 airline has taken a leadership position in thanking these special Americans and their families for their service to our country through this exclusive discount.”
Since 2004, Veterans Advantage members have been rewarded with a 5% discount on Continental.com bookings. Once United and Continental merge their websites in the first half of 2012, United will become the “Official Airline of Veterans Advantage” and discounts will be available at united.com. The United discount program for Veterans Advantage members will continue to be combinable with the MileagePlus frequent flyer program.

The Continental Airlines and United Airlines 5% discount, available on Continental.com, continues without interruption for Veterans Advantage members until the two websites are merged. For more on the current Continental Airlines Veterans Advantage discount, click here.

African American History Month: Honoring Former Veterans Advantage Member Bill Holloman
We hope you enjoy reading our profile of William "Bill" Holloman, a former Veterans Advantage member. Bill passed away a few years after we originally worked with him on the piece, but his legacy is alive and well today. As one of the famed Tuskegee Airmen, he helped pioneer the way for millions of African Americans who served our nation with honor. "We were the forerunners of the civil rights movement. We opened the door…and it has taken years for people to recognize our contribution to the war," he once said. MORE.
