I called United last night, and they STILL don't know what to do about this. And the confirmed dates for the fee "holiday" are June 1 through September 30, 2003. (I checked the Conference Report, as printed in the Congressional Record on April 12. The president signed the bill into law on April 16, but the Public Law printing is not available yet.)

When I spoke with United, the guy suggested that the holiday might apply to tickets ISSUED during that period, rather than flights taken then. I can't believe that, but obviously United has no idea what the rules are yet. Has anyone spoken with any other airline about this?
