Just off the bat, it looks a lot easier to read and understand. The current design might be done to support older browsers but I think most of the users should not be punished for the few who still use older browsers.
For what it's worth, I don't think there's any intentional support for older browsers with their current design, so much as a failure to care about any newer design.
United's current website is Continental's website pre-merger. It's the same design they've used for nearly eight years and it's really showing.
we are talking purely about visual presentation, which means that 'older browser' support isn't really an issue. everything could have been done with images (as bad of an idea as that is) and support IE 5, if you wanted to.

United's pre-merger site wasn't anything really spectacular, but it was still better than what they're putting up there now.
