In other news, still stinging from the “worst airline” ranking in the annual Airline Quality Rating for 2013, United reported it achieved its best first-quarter on-time performance among domestic flights since 2003 with 81.4 percent arriving on time, and, despite several severe weather events, ended the month of March with 80.7 percent arriving on time.
March was the third consecutive month that more than 80 percent of United’s domestic flights arrived on time.
United’s highest-performing hub for on-time departures of the airline’s first flights of the day in March was San Francisco International Airport, with 86.6 percent of flights before 9 a.m. departing exactly at departure time or early, followed by Cleveland Hopkins International at 86 percent.

United Airlines: 
No wonder it won the worst airline category, they have abysmally equipped aircraft (drop down TV’s on 14 hr flights) and the staff are very uninterested and disengaged! Would never fly with them over the pacific again even at the $1000 return price!
