The waiver for PLS, STT, SXM is astonishing in its breadth. ANY FLIGHT booked thru 2 Apr 2018 can be rebooked with no fare fare difference or change fee until end of schedule (27 Sep 2018). Things must be really bad in STT.

Edit: looks like United changed their mind on this a few days later and has slightly weakened the waiver -- now you can rebook with no fare difference or change fee only until 2 Apr 2018.

I suspect the original change was supposed to be for Maria for Puerto Rico and those manning the Travel Notices page applied it to Irma for the Leeward Islands. Someone finally caught it and now the periods are swapped between the two waivers.

That being said, since I captured it, anyone affected could still try to use that screen capture to cite that change to request a change in flights through September 27, 2018 as their basis.
