Ted (airline)

Encyclopedia : T : TE : TED : Ted (airline)

Ted is an airline brand operating in the United States, part of United Airlines. The name comes from the last three letters in the United brand name.

Its creation was announced November 12, 2003, and service began on February 12, 2004. It began service in Denver, a United hub, to compete with Frontier Airlines. The airline is equipped with 54 Airbus A320 aircraft, in a 154-seat all-economy configuration.

All Ted flights are operated by United Airlines crew flying under the United Airlines operating certificate, as Ted is not actually a certificated airline, but rather a brand name applied to differentiate the all-economy service from United's mainline flights. In fact, Ted planes can sometimes be seen operating regular United Airlines flights. In March 2006, Ted's average fleet age is 6.3 years.
