A couple more questions:
1. If I choose to upgrade to Economy Plus off an Economy award ticket, is it refundable if I end up cancelling (or switching to different flights)?
2. Is the partner airlines award seat availability limited to what I can see online or will more options appear if I call?
3. Do you have to go through immigration at NRT if only to catch a connecting flight to SIN?
1. Yes, although UA has a tendency not to refund it until after the travel date unless you call and ask about it.
2. As long as you’re doing one-way award searches, the agents see the same availability you do.
3. No.
