1. What were your organization’s digital customer service initiatives? What channels do you support today?
Our Customer Service Initiatives are to provide a Social Care experience that demonstrates our shared purpose and values.
The Social Care team at United Airlines is there for our customers 24/7/365. Social Care engages throughout the entirety of their travel journey. We look to provide a first response to the customer in less than 10 minutes from their initial outreach. When customers come to us on Social, they can expect their issue and questions to be handled in that single interaction.
The channels we support today are Twitter, Facebook and Instagram. We launched Instagram in March. Instagram is a new opportunity for us to connect with the customer.
