United Airlines CEO discusses debt ceiling and $1 billion investment in Denver.

United Airlines CEO Scott Kirby is concerned about the potential impact of a US debt ceiling crisis on the economy and his company's investments, including new Boeing 737 Max airplanes and upgraded airport experiences. Kirby hopes politicians will come to a resolution in a timely manner to avoid a self-created debt ceiling recession. Despite the contentious situation in D.C., United Airlines announced a $1 billion investment plan to add 35 flights, six new routes, a dozen gates, and three clubs to Denver International Airport, with over 60,000 departing seats per day.
