March 29 (Bloomberg) --UAL Corp.’s United Airlines said it’s seeing a rebound in bookings for flights across the Pacific, the carrier’s largest region by passenger traffic outside the U.S.
“There are real signs of recovery,” Chief Executive Officer Glenn Tilton said in Beijing today. “The Pacific is showing its traditional strength. It’s moving at a higher level compared to our other international markets.”
United is “very encouraged” by demand for trans-Pacific flights for the first quarter and beyond, Tilton said at a signing ceremony for a service agreement with Aircraft Maintenance & Engineering Corp., a joint venture between Air China Ltd. and United alliance partner Deutsche Lufthansa AG.
