A Michigan Resort Airport Is About to Reach All Seven United Hubs

United Airlines is adding two California routes from Traverse City, Michigan, for summer 2027: one to Los Angeles and one to San Francisco. Both are seasonal, begin June 19 and run on Saturdays through September 11, using Boeing 737-800 aircraft.

The schedule has a few extras for peak weeks. United plans additional flights on select Wednesdays, from June 30 to July 7 and from September 1 to September 8, giving vacationers a little more flexibility around the Fourth of July and Labor Day periods.

The notable milestone is network reach. With the new flights, Cherry Capital Airport in Traverse City will have nonstop service to all seven of United’s mainland U.S. hubs: Chicago O’Hare, Denver, Houston, Newark, Washington Dulles, Los Angeles and San Francisco. That is an unusually complete list for an airport serving a northern Michigan resort region.

For travelers on the West Coast, it could mean a one-stop-free route to the Great Lakes, which has traditionally required a connection. As always with seasonal schedules, the dates could shift before tickets go on sale, so anyone planning a wedding or family trip should confirm details with the airline.
