Better call ua today... My wait time was less than a minute... and imagine the wait time might be tomorrow if E+ does not stick on co.com.

+1. The automated phone rep actually offered the option of "request an e+" but it's the real agent that does the job. Very nice!:D

I just called and was told after a 15 minute hold that they could not do E+ TIL TOmorrow the rep spoke with a very hard to understand
accent also

I see open seats for my codeshare (CO number, UA flight) in E+, but as usual the seat selections don't stick. I'll call them tomorrow to get the seats...

I wonder when UA elites will get E+ on continental operated flights..

quantumslip Sep 30, 2010 9:34 pm

yea, decided to try anyways, said i had to do it at the airport, and for the other people he tried to sell me a upgrade package! i guess i'm going to wait for the dust to settle for more official policies...

I just checked my UA EWR-DEN-EWR itinerary for the end of October - UA.com still wants $49 each way to move into E+. Will check again tomorrow.

Too bad Co isn't doing much back for us UA elites. And an exit row seat seems beyond the reach of a UA flyer. I keep hearing about how much better Co is - so far - still waiting to discover for myself.

Maybe that is you, as I had booked CO flights two weeks ago, initially exit row wasn't available, but after I purchase, close the browser, re-enter my PNR #, the exit rows show all up include my UA MP #, and I am only a 1P.

There are others report in the UA board using the same method in order to get exit row seats on CO.

E+ success rate appears to be about 50-50, or perhaps a little worse than that.

The successful ones:

United.com still wants to sell me Economy Plus, but a quick call to reservations and got me in E+ on all active bookings.

My reservation was booked on co.com and I could select E+ seats on co.com, but they would not stick.
That is what I told the UA rep, and she immediately put me in E+. No problem.

Since you are able to see UA seatmaps on CO, I wonder when we will be able to see CO seatmaps on .bomb

I saw the same thing when I checked my reservation on line (purchased on UA.COM with my OnePass number).

Then I called United 3P number - they could see my reservation with OnePass number but declined my E+ seating request - after chacking some dosuments, I was told that Day One is October 1st, so they can't do it until tomorrow.

I'm not putting too much expectation on UA.COM - I'll call again.
