White script on a deep blue disc spells out Welcome to our friendly skies, a line that instantly recalls United. The 'Fly the Friendly Skies' campaign was created for United in 1965 by the Leo Burnett agency in Chicago, replacing the older 'Main Line Airway' slogan, and it ran until 1996 before being revived in 2013. Airlines gave stickers like this to passengers to put on their luggage, and few airline phrases have stuck in the public memory as firmly as this one.
The bag is made from 10-ounce canvas of 80% recycled cotton and 20% cotton. The recycled fibers are collected from garment-cutting waste and then intertwined with cotton for added strength and durability. Self-fabric handles. Dimensions: 15.75" h x 15.25" w; approx. 240 cubic inches.
