Do you not want to take the trip?
I got in on this at the start (
major kudos to
soy!), booking slightly after 9:45am EST. ORD-AKL-SYD on NZ, returning a week later SYD-SFO-ORD on UA. I
really would have preferred to build in an AKL stopover -- that's where we want to go -- but I couldn't figure this out on the fly and didn't want to miss out. For some reason the SFO-ORD leg booked into econ, which isn't great either, but no big deal. Even if we have to pay to get to ORD, and backtrack SYD-AKL-SYD flights, those seem like minor considerations given the ULH biz flights. After missing out on the UA 'C for the price of Y' error, I didn't think I'd ever again see fares like this. That said, I'm going to wait to see what NZ does here. My tickets are confirmed, with UA and NZ PNL's, and I have seats. I would think at this point they're not going to cancel us, but who knows?
