United has since responded.

“When we hear from customers about where we can improve, getting rid of fees is often the top request,” United CEO Scott Kirby said in a video posted Sunday. Delta and American aren’t charging change fees until next year, and Southwest Airlines doesn’t actually charge them at all.
