Ditto. [MENTION=16861]Boraxo[/MENTION], you're factually incorrect. Many of us have documented posts and experiences with UA refunding us money on 100% non-refundable tickets. This invalidates your point where you said "UA does not refund...does not matter...". The OP is not a SOL. While many of our experiences depend on the 'graciousness/mercy' of the employees, we have posted that in our advice to the OP. Sure, the chances are slim, but not SOL.

In fact, I think the OP has a good chance of being refunded/travel credit/dates moved. This is a natural disaster with real-world impacts being felt. It's not just a "my meeting got cancelled and I want a refund" kind of request.
