I've also a couple of times lately been on a 737 with a UA 1xxx number that is "canceled" and then I am rebooked on a 737 flying at exactly the same time with a UA 2xxx number.
What are suggestions for someone to do if you are stuck in the seat across from the bathroom in a situation like this?
If you de-plane and UA refuses free rebooking, what are the options?
Will the standard credit card travel insurance (e.g. Chase Sapphire) cover you in this situation?
Thanks.
