On Saturday, I flew Great Lakes from MSP to ORD. Great Lakes actually has the
lowest fare between MSP and ORD, although, because the flight goes via IWD
and IMT instead of nonstop, only people on this list are likely to take them
all the way from MSP to ORD.

Great Lakes uses gates at Mesaba's gorgeous new terminal at MSP, instead of
UA's gates, and they have their own ticket counter at MSP. However, UA
boarding pass stock was used, and the inflight magazine was UA's Hemispheres
magazine. At ORD, Great Lakes uses gate F-1, a gate they share with Air
Wisconsin in the "old" United terminal.

So, although Great Lakes may not codeshare with UA on all flights, there is
definitely a strong United "influence".

MSP: Minneapolis / St. Paul, Minnesota
IWD: Ironwood, Michigan (in the northwest corner of Michigan's Upper
Peninsula, near Lake Superior)
IMT: Iron Mountain, Michigan (in the southwest corner of Michigan's Upper
Peninsula, near Lake Michigan)
ORD: O'hare Field, Chicago, Illinois
