How we track United Airlines
The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for United Airlines, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for United Airlines, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.
When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. This is separate from United Airlines's official status page: user reports tend to show a problem early, while the official page confirms the cause. If the two disagree, check both.
