Question This is what nerdwallet tells me: “If you paid for your ticket with United MileagePlus miles, you can cancel your flight online or by calling customer service. As of Jan. 1, 2023, you can cancel an award ticket at any time before departure and have the miles redeposited without paying a fee.
Is there a reason United doesn’t offer the accelerator without a reservation, especially near end of year? Edit: didn’t realize you could add a bonus PQP accelerator to mileage accelerator for an additional cost. Good to know, thank you Reply reply lifewithcare •
United won't cancel the flight and return the luggage. So, any passenger with a checked bag is completely stuck. Any passenger who may actually want a refund for this nonsense is also stuck. They are still, at 11:40pm trying to cobble a crew together because the other crew timed out. They have so far - one flight attendant.
Promise. Special flairs: If you're a United employee or Global Services member, PM /u/Player72 with proof (ID badge or similar) and you can get a special flair. Don't come in here with a low quality rant without any additional information. You can complain, just don't be an idiot and make sure you ELABORATE on the issue if you need our advice.
But United seems to have better international destination than Delta. United seems to go to more places internationally than Delta. I do think delta is the better airline overall but international routes seem to be lacking. Price and product wise internationally it seems to be comparable maybe cheaper at times to take United.
As a United Gold member, you’re already familiar with the benefits of the MileagePlus program, and I think it’s definitely worth considering whether to create MileagePlus accounts for your kids.
IMO Basic Economy is never worth it. I have one rule when it comes to Basic Economy, which is Never book Basic Economy under any circumstances and especially not United Basic Economy. I'll take a hard pass on sitting in a middle seat (which you will be on BE) on a long international flight - coach alone is torturous enough. If I have to change my travel plans, I incur a massive change fee even ...
Totally ridiculous that United does not post the lounge access policy and first class benefits right on its website. Also ridiculous that Google cannot find any of that in about a millisecond.
