I decided to cancel it and take UA out of IAD instead....
Maybe someone else can correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought that if the only seats left were CoachChoice that you wouldnt be charged for them, I think someone in one of the other threads had the same situation and confirmed with the elite line multiple times he would not be charged.
Just my $.02, your amount may vary
