$1,100???? Even a first class ticket doesn't cost that much based on my 20 second search. You got screwed. I flew from Orlando to Moscow for less than that.

And in a sense United is right. They don't need the southernmost runway. Just finish the one that is 1/2 done now and continue to improve the current terminals. The city trying to build the western terminal for new low cost carriers is an idiotic idea. If the city wants a western terminal, they need to convince either United or American to move into it and make it a Star Alliance / Oneworld hub, akin to the McNamara terminal in Detroit. But good luck convincing either of them to pay for that.
