The group desk is super helpful. They are the best UA phone agents I've ever dealt with. I'd definitely recommend booking through them for a group of 10 or more. Three things to note though: 1) they will only help you if you booked it all as one transaction through them, 2) seat assignments and changes can only be made through them on the phone, and 3) they're closed on nights and weekends.
