HYD-SEA *A economy award
Hi,
I am looking to book an economy award from HYD-SEA at the end of August and the dates are relatively flexible. What is the best way I can search on united website or expert flyer to find a low level saver ticket? What segments should I be looking for? I was looking for HYD-FRA-SEA on LH but that doesn't seem to be available. Is LH still running nonstop HYD-FRA segment? Also is the $75 close in fee only for flights with in 14 days or 21 days? Appreciate some pointers. Thanks Ik. |

You might want to just play with a dummy booking on the website to see what is available. Checking on 28Aug there is saver availability HYD-BKK-NRT-SEA. Good luck. |

You would be much better off trying to find something ex Bom or del. hyd doesn't have very many options. Also the dates you are looking for fall in the summer period with very little availability. If you are flexible try looking from mid sept onwards.

I am trying to have the travel completed as early as possible. My start is from HYD but I dont mind connecting via BOM/DEL or any other gateway as long as the HYD-Gateway is included in the ticket.
@SunBurntCountry Yes, I was looking at that as well and was about to reserve/hold it and the united website wouldn't recognize my US address for payment. Its a new address and united has problems recognizing it somehow. |

Its a new address and united has problems recognizing it somehow. Microsoft has a large presence at HYD. Is that why you're going from SEA? LH stopped HYD service last fall. Now, you will need to take an itinerary such as: UA-QR or AC-QR SEA-(IAH/IAD/JFK/YUL)-DOH-HYD or TG/ANA or TG/UA BKK-ICN-SFO or BKK-NRT-(SEA/SFO/LAX)-SEA (last leg if needed). There are also connections via BKK/China, but the layovers are long. Just today I booked a business class award for a friend and it was painful because of the phantom availability discussed in another thread about QR awards. I got LAX-YUL-DOH-HYD on AC/QR and HYD-BKK-NRT-LAX on TG/ANA. Includes the A380 from BKK-NRT. Go to the UA website and book online. Phantom availability on QR will make this a difficult process. On the payment page, instead of paying, you should click on the link for phone reservations. If that gives you an error, it means that no seats are available. If it gives you a reservation number, then you can finalize the seat by going to "manage reservations" and purchasing the ticket (you need to pay the fees).

Try putting it on 24hr hold by paying for it in cash. Then call UA and have them ticket it. They should be able to waive the telephone service charge if you explain to them the error you are getting.

I was worried the only saver award on 28th would disappear so I eventually got it to ticket on TG/NH HYD-BKK-NRT-SEA routing. As I worried, as soon as I booked the ticket, the saver award disappeared.

Seems to have worked out well.
