“My experience in the US Navy set the stage for almost everything that I have achieved throughout my life. At a very young age, I was given an incredible amount of responsibility and the accountability that goes along with it. I served in Asia, Africa, the Persian Gulf, Indian Ocean, the Atlantic and in the Mediterranean areas. I’ve benefited from lifelong friendships and the leadership of exceptional people with whom and for whom I have served and led. I believe that is also true at United.”
Bryan Quigley, SVP Flight Operations
