524 itemized gifts totaling $301,472 sit at the meeting of United Airlines and the 2012 cycle. 201 unique donors produced the cell. FEC.gov is the source. The grouping’s all-cycle total is $7,420,373, so this window is about 4.1% — airline employer text in a two-year tag, not United Airlines PAC, a NAICS air-transport rollup, or United Continental as a sibling string.

Key figures

  • $301,472 is the United Airlines × 2012 overlap.
  • 201 unique donors; 524 itemized contributions; mean gift about $575.
  • Lifetime grouping $7,420,373; 2012 share about 4.1%.
  • The page is airline employer text, not United Airlines PAC.
  • Unitemized gifts, PACs, and federal awards sit outside this cell.

Two keys: UNITED AIRLINES and 2012

The packet’s keys are literal: industry string UNITED AIRLINES, cycle 2012. Their product on FEC.gov individual-contribution aggregates is $301,472, from 524 contributions and 201 donors. No recipient list, party split, or PAC total is published here.

Treat the label as airline employer text. Self-reported employer and occupation fields are free text. Filers who wrote a longer firm name, a parent company, or a nearby title are counted elsewhere. This page does not merge those buckets.

$301,472 is smaller than $7,420,373 because other cycles exist, and it is not a share of national 2012 giving because this packet has no cycle-wide denominator. The join is the point.

Where $7,118,901 still sits

After this 2012 cell of $301,472, $7,118,901 of the United Airlines grouping remains in other even-year windows. That remainder is 95.9% of $7,420,373. The 2012 page is not empty of other employers; this file simply does not add them.

Percentages here use packet facts only. No national 2012 total is supplied, so no “share of the election” claim is possible. 4.1% is United Airlines-internal. Because 2012 is about 4.1% of $7,420,373, most stored United Airlines money sits outside this window ($7,118,901). The industry hub is the index for those other cycles. This page isolates 2012 so the lifetime figure is not mistaken for a two-year number.
