United Airlines launched its summer schedule with new service to European destinations in Croatia, Italy, Scotland, and Spain. Routes started rolling out on April 30, giving you more ways to explore unique and culturally rich spots across Europe.
In 2026, United plans to operate up to 210 daily flights at peak times between the U.S. and 36 European destinations—including Greenland—with 14 routes not served by any other U.S. network carrier, offering more flexibility for travelers.
New flights starting in May include:
- Split, Croatia (SPU) – First-ever nonstop service begins April 30, with three weekly flights to Croatia’s Dalmatian Coast.
- Bari, Italy (BRI) – The only U.S. carrier serving this gateway to Puglia, launching four weekly flights on May 1.
- Glasgow, Scotland (GLA) – The only nonstop service begins May 8, with daily flights to Scotland’s cultural hub.
- Santiago de Compostela, Spain (SCQ) – First-ever service to this historic pilgrimage destination starts May 27, with three weekly flights from Newark/New York.
- Reykjavik, Iceland (KEF) – Daily nonstop service from Washington-Dulles launches May 21, the only capital-to-capital route offering lie-flat business class seats.
These new routes connect you directly to some of Europe’s most popular summer destinations—from Croatia’s scenic coastlines to Italy’s historic cities and the vibrant cultural centers of Spain and Scotland.
