Did this over last Thanksgiving. Methinks it must be fairly common, no questions asked when I showed my UA itin to TG staff at BKK.

Of course my PVG-SFO was cancelled, so my 47 hour and 45 minute layover was shortened by many hours to accomodate a CA flight to KIX and THEN a flight to SFO on UA

Moreover, the first of three agents I talked to insisted the flight was on, even though I received an automated email from UA telling me said flight was CX and there was no UA flight for that day in the system even though it was wide open day before
