This ticket is just for the MCO-IAD Leg. I am connecting to a South African Airways Flight to Johannesburg, and then on to Durban.

I have bought 3 tickets this year from United which i haven't been able to cancel as I don't feel like wasting $150 each time. So my original fare on the 17th of september which i booked 2 months ago for the same flight was $89. So then i looked for the 16th yesterday it came up as $109. Today when i look it was $64. So United obviously likes to 'play' with the prices of this route.

I am fortunate to have enough miles to upgrade on my SAA Voyager miles for the IAD-JNB-DUR leg and have Star Alliance Silver, So i fly United and SAA all the time, but this just makes me a little upset that the prices can vary so much! For a college kid, it makes a huge difference! I'm not going to say ' well i will never fly with them again' because i would be lying. I like United and SAA, but just wish that they could be a little more proactive about this type of thing like Orbitz with the money 'back if there is a fare difference' type of thing.
