I like to find different, intriguing videos on YouTube and other channels that relate to aviation and the travel industry, and share them with you. Often, these videos provide some sort of behind the scenes look at a certain aspect of traveling, like the recent video I posted looking into the behind the scenes life of a reserve flight attendant.
Here’s a neat video I found, delving deep into the United Airlines’ nerve center inside the Willis Tower in Chicago. Think of it like Mission Control for Unite – it’s where all of the schedules are controlled, airplanes tracked, and flight plans filled. Open 24/7, this command post is the heart of the operations for Chicago based Star Alliance carrier.
