I original flights was 20 minutes late and we had 20 minutes to get our connecting flight the attendant on the plan asked those that did not have a connecting flight or had plenty of time to let those who must hurry to get their next flight to please allow them off the plane first. Most people obliged and let us get off the plane. We were a few minutes late getting to our gate but Untied held the plane for us. Thank you Untied Airlines.
