I applaud United for having the courage to create commercials that are artistic and different. At least one company doesn't bend to the average bourgeois taste of the masses.
The opening reminds me of the Menu on my Monty Python & the Holy Grail DVD. I'm half-expecting to see animated guys bending over, heads between their legs, blowing a fanfare of horns from their arses (gotta use that authentic British dialect).
Sorry to conjure such an image from something so otherwise "Disney" ;)

Wow they wasted 300k on an ad and still employ senior citizens to walk past you on the plane and snigger if you need anything. As a long term first and business class traveler they are rubbish. Change the ads and the seat's and they will still be rubbish. Its a real pity they did not disappear when they went bankrupt. Its funny how they used 911 to hide the fact that they were crap then and are worse now. Fly someone else and get your monies worth. Packaging is not always true to contents...
Which airline doesn't want to hire young pretty girls? Do you seriously think grannies are cheaper to maintain than younger flight attendants? Don't forget there's such a such as union rules. United isn't the only U.S.carrier in this boat.
No, watch it in high quality. It's a four sets of nested fish--a tiny fish in a bigger fish's mouth which is in another bigger fishes mouth, etc. But yeah, kinda creepy. I like it!
@TheMonkeyMan94 No, there aren't a bunch of different versions. The whole piece is like 15 minutes long. They just use different parts of the piece for various 1-minute long commercials. I'd suggest you look up Rhapsody in Blue in its entirety. If you like the commercials, you'll love the whole song.
this commercial was soooo overplayed during the olympics
