I flew with friendly United last month to/from deer hunting in Saskatchewan and learned on arrival in SK that United had implemented a new poilcy whereby antlers, capes, hides or meat cannot be handled as baggage. No discussions and no exceptions. They didn't want to hear the other major carriers (Nothwest and Air Canada) have no such restrictions. Hunters who had deer trophies to bring home were left hanging and their only option was to leave the antlers and capes in SK for mounting and air freight delivery months from now. That was my first and will be my last trip with United anywhere. Frank
