United Airlines Hosts 'Fantasy Flights' to Bring Holiday Joy to Children in Need

The airline offers short flights from 13 cities, transforming airport hangars into festive 'North Pole' experiences for underprivileged families.

United Airlines' 'Fantasy Flights' provide a magical holiday experience for children facing hardships, such as cancer or the loss of a loved one in active duty.
Flights depart from 13 cities worldwide, including Chicago, Tokyo, London, and Honolulu, and return to transformed airport hangars designed as the 'North Pole.'
The events are organized in partnership with local nonprofits and hospitals, with over 150 volunteers creating festive environments featuring Santa, elves, games, and gifts.
Each child receives a personalized gift from their wishlist, along with activities like face painting, hula performances, and special meals for their families.
United encourages public support through donations of air miles and money, matching contributions to further benefit children and families in need.
