But I don't see how an American, with an American billing address, who is visiting Denmark, and buying a ticket ex-LHR, would not be in the same situation as all of the people who purchased tickets today. The reality is that the airlines base fares on your departure city and your currency choice, not your home or credit card address. UA's website is misleading in that regard, and that is why everyone was able to do it, regardless of the CC billing address..
