How to redeem VDBFREE & Systemwide Travel Vouchers

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

An FYI to those who want to redeem VDB / Vouchers

1. If they are in your name and for you simply make a reservation over the phone, which can be held for 14 days, and either go to the airport to redeem or mail it in to:

United Airlines Discount Certificate
17501 Michigan Ave
Dearborn, MI 48126

2. If they are for someone not named on the voucher. You can have them make a reservation over the phone, which can be held for 14 days, and either go to the airport to redeem or mail it in to:

United Airlines Discount Certificate
17501 Michigan Ave
Dearborn, MI 48126

If mailing you will also need to include a copy of your picture ID along with a letter that includes your name, UA mp #, passenger name and the PNR. In the two line letter say:

This letter is to confirm I'm giving this voucher/VDBFREE to XXXXXXXXXX as a gift. Please apply this voucher/VDBFREE to XXXXXXXX 's PNR XXXXXXX.

Sincerely,



voucher/VDBFREE holder
UA mileage plus # xxxxxxxxxxx

3. Make sure to write in the PNR on the voucher/VDBFREE before mailing it in as there isn't a place for that but I think it helps eliminate any confusion. There are 3 lines (pass. name, date of return travel, flight # of return travel) but no place for the PNR, simply write it above those lines.

4. Your ticketing date is what needs to be looked at as the expiration for ticketing only. You can book 330 days out from that date, thus travel doesn't need to be started or completed by the ticketing date, only the that the ticket needs to be issued by that date. Actually if your voucher/VDBFREE has expired, but less than 30 days after expiration, they will allow you to still travel but the entire trip has to be completed within 60 days from the ticketing expiration date.

The above is for VDBFREE and UA Systemwide Travel Vouchers.

Type A, B, AB maybe the same (I know Systemwide is treated like a Type B voucher)
