United Airlines
Airline completes 14,000+ transfers this summer

United and BMW of North America are celebrating a successful summer, completing more than 14,000 luxury tarmac transfers since launching the automaker’s first tarmac transfer program with a U.S. airline in May. Available to select MileagePlus® Premier® members, the service offers chauffeured rides between connecting flights in 10 BMW vehicles across United hubs in Chicago, Denver, Houston, Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Washington, D.C. Upon arrival, a dedicated Premier services agent meets members at the gate and escorts them to a state-of-the-art all-electric BMW i7 xDrive60 sedan or BMW iX M70 SUV waiting on the tarmac to drive them to their connecting flight.

United’s 10 vehicle tarmac fleet currently features seven BMW i7 xDrive60s, which provide silent, effortless, and luxurious all-electric power with 536hp and up to 311 miles of range. These vehicles also feature a Rear Executive Lounge with BMW’s class-exclusive 31” rear theater screen, a Large Sky Lounge LED Panoramic Roof, and front and rear massaging seats. Additionally, the fleet includes three BMW iX M70s, the brand’s all-electric performance SUV offering 650hp and more than 300 miles of range. The vehicle’s notable features include a Bowers & Wilkins Diamond Surround Sound System, an Illuminated Kidney Grille, and a Panoramic Glass Eclipsing Roof with one-touch opacity for enhanced comfort and privacy.

More than transportation, these vehicles transform quick connections into memorable travel moments for MileagePlus Premier members, delivering exceptional comfort and the distinctly premium experience United and BMW are known for.
