United is planning to fly to 37 countries in Europe, Africa, and the Middle East this summer.

Anthony’s Take: All of this direct service likely means that we’re in for another busy summer for European travel. I know we’re heading to Italy in late June (The White Lotus made me want to go back to Sicily (as I wrote here). I give United credit for its route network and all of the holiday flights its offering.
