United Airlines said it will restrict access to AI agents seeking to book flights and manage reservations on their users’ behalf, citing a risk to cybersecurity and undermining federal regulations.
The airline is the latest American corporate giant to prevent customers from using AI agents and autonomous assistants to access their systems. The move comes as airlines and banks are struggling to differentiate between real customers and AI systems operating on their behalf, such as when users share their logins with their AI assistants. Sharing passwords with apps and assistants can create security risks if those credentials get leaked or exposed.
United warns that “sharing account credentials with personal, third-party, AI assistants can expose sensitive information, and actions taken by these tools may result in unintended purchases, account changes, or use of MileagePlus miles.”
The airline also warns of a risk of violating federal aviation rules, such as requiring that a human completes flight check-ins to acknowledge that their bags do not contain banned substances.
“As a result, United is taking steps to restrict access — directly within our digital platforms and indirectly via travel agencies and aggregators — to prohibit use by unauthorized, third-party personal AI agents or assistants,” the airline said in a statement. “This work includes updates to our booking, ticketing and distribution policies.”
The airline’s move follows a warning from banks, including Bank of America, which last week urged customers not to share their passwords with their AI assistants.

2026年11月11日，The Verge 报道，United 表示不允许个人 AI 智能体代用户预订其航班，理由包括隐私风险、可能做出非用户本意的购买，以及规避联邦航空披露规则的顾虑；据 The Wall Street Journal 报道，该公司称目前很少见到用户用 AI 智能体订票，智能体仍可展示 United 的航班信息。11月12日，TechCrunch 报道，美联航宣布将限制 AI 智能体代表用户预订机票和管理订座，理由是网络安全风险和可能违反联邦法规。报道称，该公司将在自有数字平台以及通过旅行社和聚合平台间接限制未经授权的第三方个人 AI 智能体，并更新预订、出票和分销政策；还警告与 AI 助手共享账号密码可能泄露敏感信息、导致误购或误用 MileagePlus 里程。TechCrunch 提到，此举之前，Bank of America 等银行上周已敦促客户不要向 AI 助手共享密码。两次报道在限制理由的表述上略有差异：The Verge 称理由为隐私风险、非本意购买和联邦航空披露规则顾虑，后续报道称理由为网络安全风险和可能违反联邦法规。事件目前到美联航宣布限制政策为止，尚未有政策生效细节或用户反应的进一步报道。
