United Airlines said Friday it will start requiring minimum stays

I already knew that United was in trouble the other day when my oldest daughter told me that they had joined with Continential and eliminated some of the flights from San Jose, which is now confirmed by this CNN article:

United Airlines said Friday it will start requiring minimum stays for nearly all domestic coach seats, beginning in October. It is also raising its cheapest fares by as much as $90 one-way.

The second-largest U.S. carrier said the moves are among a number of changes - including flight and job cutbacks - it is making to combat record-high fuel prices.
