Family traveling on two PNRs
Flying to the USA - I'm on one PNR, wife and our two underage children on a separate PNR. She is sick. If she doesn't make the trip, will UA still allow the children to fly with me if they are on a different PNR, provided I have birth certificates, passports, and anything else they might want to see?

Allow for extra time at checkin and immigration. While not required, it helps to have a letter from your spouse granting travel permission. Again not necessary but a witnessed or equivalent of notarized letter is even better. Small children traveling with one one parent can increase scrutiny depending on the passports / country of origin / ....

Here's a letter that you may print, fill in blanks and have notarized. It's a UK letter.
