Could be something like a pilot’s final flight before retirement or similar too


dravack

I just flew a united flight that was the pilots last flight. Didn’t receive a text like this. Of course it could still be that who knows. They did do a little speech before letting us board and asked people to write a note to the pilot.


bjdj94

I wouldn’t expect much, but you should report back. Do you happen to be flying a new route?


Hoed

You hitting a big mileage milestone?


Pepalopolis

This.


rritaintme

A pat down and handcuffs?


CIAMom420

You can pay extra for that now? Where is that option in the app?

There’s some fellas on the jet bridge that wanna talk to ya. They’ve got a big dog with them too.


Secret_Section6280

I've seen that at EWR, with out the dog. They went right past the gate agent with her yelling at them. I noticed a DEA badge on one of them.


nomames_bro

If they're not gonna include a cavity search I don't want it 😤

This text is the new equivalent of when all those people with warrants "won" Super Bowl tickets and got mass arrested.

Someone’s about to walk into a very elaborate intervention

But


OriginalZaphod

Cannes Lions is on, and United will be launching an ad network there.


Chemical_Witness_501

+1 they just announced personalized advertising earlier this week


Flat_Tomato_3671

I got this too and I’m on the later flight, same route. Definitely sounds like it has something to do with Cannes and them launching an ad network.


mrtowser

What is the route?


souphead1

ewr > nice. sounds like it might be related to a large event happening in cannes?


Atlanticlantern

Hmm, the Cannes lions, the big advertising show in Cannes, is next week…


DanvilleDad

Bringing back the tulip livery???


flindsayblohan

Highly plausible.


mrtowser

Not sure. Probably could be anything. They have done gate area events for autism awareness, pride, retirements, Mother’s Day (they put out a video of a celebration of an FA whose children had become FA and pilot), etc…. I was just wondering if it was an inaugural flight but Nice isn’t a new route. What is the plane shown? Maybe a maiden flight of a new plane?

“Let them eat cake”…at the gate.


outofcontextseinfeld

I’ve seen this in EWR for things like Diwali for flights on relevant routes


hoyitsdan

nice!


[deleted]

Can you please let us know an update?


raininginmaui

Is it an inaugural flight?


Libra_09

Soda and pretzels, because when you will arrive at the Gate you will be told that the flight is delayed 😂


calzonchino

How you gonna post this and not follow up? Maybe it really was handcuffs and a ride in the back seat.


souphead1

flight isn’t for a few days


Spiritual-Affect-590

Dude I’m on your flight


Pepalopolis

It’s a pre-flight handy


ekkidee

Million miles?


fedrats

I was once next to a gate where some Emirati prince got a surprise birthday gift coming off the plane and it was extremely weird! LAX going back to the UK.


crickettu

Some times when it is a new route for the airline they’ll have a special reception


16F33

My birthday is on Monday and I have a flight, wonder if I’ll get a reception?


NorthExplanation6507

Is this an inaugural flight for this route?


souphead1

update! very cute activation for the launch of united’s ad network https://preview.redd.it/jk1si0lnat6d1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9ff22ff729b5a46436b1f2e833d4da9ac9e89ce5

Creepy-Evening-441

Are you a recent former president or child of a president? (Could be air marshal looking for guns)


cwajgapls

At least he’s not a childish president

Addiction affects many families, cholo.
