Unfortunately, due to a temporary security block on the CBS News website, the full transcript of United CEO Scott Kirby’s interview on ‘Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan’ on May 11, 2025, is currently unavailable. The CBS website experienced a suspected DDoS attack, resulting in temporary access restrictions. This prevented access to the transcript at the time of writing this blog post.
This is incredibly frustrating, as many were anticipating insights into United’s strategies and responses to current industry challenges. Scott Kirby’s appearances are always highly anticipated, given his candid and often controversial opinions on aviation policy, competition, and the future of air travel. We were particularly keen to learn about United’s plans for expansion, sustainability initiatives, and their approach to managing potential future disruptions.
As soon as the CBS News website becomes accessible again, and the transcript of the interview becomes available, we will update this post with a comprehensive summary and analysis. We will delve into the key takeaways from the interview, exploring the most relevant points and offering our perspective on their significance for the airline industry and its passengers. We encourage you to bookmark this page and check back regularly for updates.
In the meantime, we’ll continue monitoring the situation and will provide an update as soon as possible. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by this unforeseen circumstance and appreciate your patience and understanding.
