United Ticket Offices - Are There Any Left?

Hi all,

Could someone tell me where I can find a list of United ticket offices - or have they all closed?

My understanding is that 1 or 2 may still be open somewhere?

Thanks.

At least as of a year ago, there was one at the Kempinski Hotel in Beijing. When I asked the res agent for its operating hours, they said "we have no more CTOs"... but sure enough the agent was able to pull up the details!

It existence may have something to do with the dependence on cash transactions and paper tickets in China, but perhaps it is already closed or its days are numbered...

It was relocated to midlevel floor in a class-B office building about 4 months ago (Shanghai suffered a similar fate several years back).

UA closed its CTO in Tokyo last spring although they still use the premises as an administrative office. The location was inherited from Pan Am and sits on some prime real estate right across from the Imperial Palace, in the heart of the old financial district.

NW, on the other hand, uses a much less sexy facility out by NRT...

Funniest .bomb link yet!

I just had to laugh at this link still on the UAL site:

Ticket Offices

Lists only 1 country (Russia) and when you select that it says 'not offices here'.

LOL.

Presuming that's November 10th (and not October 11th as it would be in Singapore date format), that would add even more weight to 11/11/11 being "day one" of the new United.
