why would anyone care about the 24hr cancellation or fee. It's 4 miles per ticket. If they do honor it and you can't travel forget the miles. Am I missing something?

I booked a EWR-HKG r/t for 4 miles plus $40 or so. Would love to see what happens next given my Mileageplus account had only 50 miles in it!

What the hay... I'll give it a shot...
went with a standard awardx2.. 640K miles (which I definitely do not have) for GF. Nice to be able to have the best times possible for the flight :). E receipt shows 8 miles+$81.... I actually have the same itinerary already booked on Air Canada/Asiana through USAirways... FDW |
I've decided not to even attempt this one, in light of the (IMO) slim chance of success. But I'll really regret my decision if UA honors the 4 points award.
|
I just booked 3 BWI-HKG for 12 miles and $120. It hasn't ticketed yet for me and so far no miles have been deducted.
|
The current outcomes I can surmise are this:
1: UA honors the tickets. People can choose whether to travel or not, and forfeit the miles/taxes if they don't. (Is it possible to get your taxes and fees back if you decide not to travel, without paying the award redeposit fee--so forfeiting the miles, but not the money?) 2: UA doesn't honor the tickets and refunds everyone's purchases. Am I missing anything? |

Do Platinums get free redeposit of award miles if they cancel? I see on the Boarding Area blog that there are several posts about the correct amount of miles being deducted from Mileage Plus accounts. Will you fly at full miles?

My receipt clearly says 4 miles per ticket. Just checked and they deducted 60 k each. If I have it on a UA receipt shouldn't they honor that?

Do not call.

Besides, you also forget about the CASH cancellation fee. |

Because you are also out the cancellation fee of $150 for GM, $125 for lowest tier elite, so on so forth if canceled after 24 hours period. |
well I received an e-ticket for my trip...
no miles deducted... this should be a fun one.. I wont get terribly upset if it doesnt work out... fdw |
