Today, I received my air ticket for Seattle.
I love the ticket
Yes. I love the ticket issued by United Airlines. It is a decent paper ticket with a nice cover. It is also informative. I can easily find the starting point and the destination, with local times. It is bad to see some air tickets in China only give the departure time without arrival time.

Após ter verificado todas as linhas aéreas, nós escolhemos finalmente United Airlines voar a ESTADOS UNIDOS.

Pedem uma data da partida e uma data do retorno, a origem e o destino e o sistema calculam a mais melhor rota. Isto é convinient para a maioria de passageiros, mas não para mim.
