Flying EWR to Delhi in two weeks. Currently being offered Polaris for $1,300 a person. Any sense what this will drop to closer to or during check in?

But if you pay to upgrade you don't get anything for the $1200 upgrade fee.

transcon HOD offer: LAX-BOS $299 from a K fare (for context, the K fare was $149 all in). at time of booking, the difference was ~$475. i was offered $413 several times before 24h.

declined all. eastbound with a monster jetstream, i rode 20C with 20B empty for 4.5 hours. eeeeeeasy ride! westbound, i might take a $299. (actual westbound, i spent 17.5k on a mileage upgrade BOS-DEN-BUR. BOS-DEN was about 8 minutes shorter than LAX-BOS.)

1/1 ORD-OMA E175 $69

Took them all.

Original roundtrip booked (G) $239.

Deal of the year IMO. Polaris services in the wide bodies.

Congratulations on getting such an excellent fare for OMA-IAH, too.

I have been near 100% on OMA flights with F the last 4 months, so haven't needed to buy upgrades. (CPU'd for OMA-DEN this Sunday, hopefully the flight will operate.)

Interested to hear what happens.

No PQM, no RDM and no PQD.

Classic united, why 1k is so mediocre

3 seats left

Come to find out an hour later after speaking to a friend booked on my flight that he was offered the last three seats to upgrade into for $129 each and grabbed them. They have no status, not even a single MP number on the reservation.

That's ridiculous.

660 on 1/20, $249, passed. There were 6 open F seats when I checked in, 12 hours later all booked.

The offer for EWR-SFO ps from V class to Business is $299 for my 1K friend after check-in. Declined. He hopes that the RPU upgrade will be cleared.

LAX - ORD from L class to P class - $199 - took it. I was planning in economy to get Directv, lunch and a drink or two, so figure $30 I would have spent back there. So effectively $169 for a 4.5 hour flight.

I have always got OLCI upgrades offers from UA, a friend of mine got it and to my reservation is only offering to buy economy plus, any clues?

Kmxu Jan 21, 2017 6:52 pm

EWR-SFO
 
offer of $299 at check-in from V class for my 1K friend. Luckily, his RPU upgrade cleared 3 hours later. There were, at least, four takers on this flight.
