United expands in San Francisco with flights to Melbourne, New Delhi, Toronto

United on Wednesday announced a major international expansion at San Francisco International Airport. The airline said it plans to add flights between San Francisco and Melbourne, Australia, New Delhi, Toronto and to boost service to Amsterdam and Seoul, South Korea. United CEO Oscar Munoz said it's the largest international expansion United has ever done in San Francisco. "We really feel it secures United as the premier gateway to the Pacific," he said. United had teased the new routes as a "historic package of new and expanded international routes" prompting hours of online speculation about the new flights, including possible flights to Africa. (No flights to Africa were announced.) "It's a capstone to 2018, which I think truly is a breakthrough year for United," Munoz said. Story has more flight details.<br/>
