Flying UA in F/C should be sufficient for SFO-ORD-IAD. Is there no ns in F/C SFO-IAD?
If available, consider SFO-JFK in C on PS, connecting to SA JFK-JNB ns on the A346. It skips the fuel stop, and saves you a couple of hours.
United won't give me seat assignments on line so I guess I'll call them directly but I'm always nervous that ICC will mess me up.
There were F/C, B/C Saver awards but only for this itinerary. We're going on a safari and these tickets are for April 27, 2013. I like your itinerary but like the award even more.
I was just concerned about the connection because O'Hare is such a big airport and I'm not really a FF so I don't know it very well. Are the gates usually close to each other?
