It says change fees may apply, should I call the united representative to see if any change fees will be deducted?
Just want to make sure I will not be out of the Taxes and fees of $1,524.70.
If it is about 100-200 $ that is ok, but their website says a change fee of 400 for international flights, so that will be 800 for 2 people.


my ticket says
United Economy (B) for 3 flights and United Premium Plus (O) for one flight.

Thanks.
all ex-US tickets (that aren’t basic economy) haven’t had a change fee since not long after COVID started. I’ve definitely seen a lot of ex-international that don’t have it either, though not certain it’s blanket. That said, you can check your fare rules to see what the fee is if there is one, though I’d think fairly unlikely on a B fare.

you’ll get everything back in FFC, including fees/taxes. In the small chance there is a change fee, you’ll pay that separately when you select your new flights, and pay nothing when you cancel the existing itinerary.
