## Summary

New San Francisco flying from March 28, 2027 restores Hartford as daily year-round 737 MAX 9 service, a route United ended in 2018. Oklahoma City returns in March 2027 as a daily SkyWest E175 after ending in April 2020. Live and Let's Fly reports the schedules were loaded in late October and publicized by the destination airports rather than United.

Charleston starts March 28, 2027 as seasonal 4x weekly service on 737-800/MAX 8 aircraft. Richmond begins that day with Thursday and Sunday flights only. Norfolk is year-round from March 31, 2027 on Wednesdays and Saturdays. SFO-Richmond overlaps Breeze Airways' existing nonstop.

Airport announcements pitch the flights as feed into United's West Coast hub. Richmond and Norfolk stay 2x weekly, so remaining days still need a connection. Watch United's March 2027 SFO schedule for those limited days of week if the nonstops or hub connections matter.
