United aims to resume full Houston schedule by Sept 8
United Continental plans to resume service at Houston’s main airport by Sept 8, more than a week earlier than it had planned to return to full strength following Tropical Storm Harvey. “Our employees are currently rallying to restore service faster than originally anticipated,” United said Friday. George Bush Intercontinental, United’s second-biggest hub, allowed some flights to arrive and take off Wednesday as floodwaters covering the roads that connect the airport to Houston started to recede.

United didn’t comment on its access to jet fuel in Houston. <br/>
