United Airlines becomes Golden State Warriors’ official airline

Tuesday, 21 Oct, 2016 0
United Airlines has announced a new multi-year partnership with the Golden State Warriors to become the team’s official airline partner.
 
The partnership takes effect from the 2016-17 season and United will also be a founding partner of the Warriors’ new Chase Center arena being built in San Francisco.
 
"As the official airline of the Warriors, United solidifies its leadership and commitment to the San Francisco and Bay Area communities. San Francisco is a key market for United, and this relationship demonstrates further investment in our employees and our customers," said Julia Haywood, United’s chief commercial officer.
 
United also increased its support of the Boys & Girls Clubs of San Francisco to $60,000 in travel funds, which is used to fly its Rebels basketball team to tournaments across the country.
 
As part of the deal, United’s MileagePlus members will be able to redeem miles for a host of perks including priority access to premium seats and VIP packages, and autographed Warriors merchandise available on the MileagePlus Exclusives platform.
