I called UA and asking if the agent can combine my two bookings and throw in the free trip from LIH to OGG. He said he can do it. I received ticketing email from LIH to OGG while I was on the phone with him. I thought he was able to add the free leg. However I looked my account and I noticed my two original booking are gone and the agent just hang up on me when I said that. I called back and another agent helped me to put back my two original booking, however, she said no redeye flight from OGG to LAX, I checked my self and I can see the reward flight and she just told that she has more real time but she changed the flight time. original flight was a redeye flight and has much less miles and that is why I booked it. The flight she changed was 25k miles/person. That flight was immediately ticketed while I was on the phone with her and one the email receipt, I did not see miles taken. I asked her at least two times that the 3 bookings (I do not know why she can not combine the trip in one) will charge my original miles and she confirmed. Today I received ticketing information from LAX to LIH, I was charged 11600/person. I am still waiting for ticketing for LIH to OGG. Now I am worried about what will happen to UA charge my miles. Anyone has any experience to share? I just do not want to have a few days before my trip and they cancel my tickets or even worse we are at the airport and were told our flight are cancelled. I heard horrible stories before and I just want to prevent this happen. I would like to call them again and I think the agent are not very knowledgeable yesterday. Should I call any particular department can sort this out? Thank you very much any input are appreciated.
Sorry to hear your trouble.
Next time, post here and ask questions before calling UA.
