United Airlines confirmed this week that it plans to stop flying to Blaise Diagne International Airport (DSS) in Dakar, Senegal, and Stockholm Arlanda Airport (ARN) in Sweden.
The Chicago-based carrier will end service between Washington, D.C.'s Dulles International Airport (IAD) and DSS on March 5, 2026. The airline's seasonal service between Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR), which already ended for 2025, will not return as originally planned for the 2026 summer travel season.
In a set of statements, a spokesperson for United said that passengers with tickets already booked can either request a refund or reach out to United to be rerouted on a different airline.
