United in my opinion is one of the worst when it comes to cancelled flights. Been there, done that.

This'll help you.

I would urge you not to use the word <deleted> when dealing with Thais. Even when used in an indirect fashion, it will elicit a massive negative reaction. This may have been your problem at the airport. Really, don't use it.

Not to be picky here, at least not too much, but do you mean UA 890?? Plane broken?

Flight UA 7054 seems to be from Rapid City, South Dakota to Denver:

7:47 AM RAP – 9:25 AM DEN

Operated by UNITED EXPRESS/ MESA AIRLINES

United 7054

I flew UA in July back to SEA, beer was $6! I had OJ. Returning exSFO earlier this month, beer free again. Guess they had enough complaints, or found they were's saving much $$$.

UA has canceled all flights to/from NRT (30/31 Aug) owing to Typhoon Krovanh, hence UA 890 BKK-NRT today (31/8) was canceled. Since flights to NRT from the USA were canceled yesterday (30/8) there would be no aircraft available to take you NRT-USA and you'd be stuck in NRT. Maybe better to be stuck here? UA tends to be more cautious for several reasons. FWIW, UA have the aircraft here at BKK as it arrived last night as UA 891 NRT-BKK, so expect some chaos the next few days as they work to get everyone out. I find the UA staff here to be top-shelf, much better than TG, SQ and LH, IME and I'm surprised you weren't able to get a satisfactory explanation.

It looks like the NW flight departed BKK, albeit ~ 4 hours late. Perhaps the Typhoon will not be as strong later in the day?

No wonder the guy is so upset.

In the meantime, all TG's flights to/from Narita during the same period reported mostly on-time departures and arrivals. The few delayed flights saw passengers contacted via email, sms or phone by Thai reservations staff.
