Hey guys, first time poster here.
I'm looking at a specific route from Newark to Stockholm on May 25th. I remember a month ago that this was listed for 30k for one-way (Economy), but for the past couple weeks it's been listing as 57.5K.
I'm not too clear on how United works regarding their reward system, but is there any chance they might decrease it back to 30k or do you guys think it'll always be at 57.5k now?
Thanks for all your help!

The following may or may not be of interest to you, but it seemed to be worth posting. If you can leave from BOS instead of EWR, you can get an award ticket through United for 30k + $23.00 for one-stop travel to Stockholm on SAS. Leave Boston at 5:30 PM; arrive Copenhagen at 6:55 AM the next day. Leave Copenhagen at 8 AM; arrive Stockholm at 9:10 AM. If you prefer to allow more time at Copenhagen, later flights to Stockholm are available for the same price.
Hope this suggestion helps!

Thanks for the suggestion! Unfortunately I was looking at that and when I was about to book it, UA says that flight is not available anymore, although it keeps being listed for some reason. But thanks for taking your time to look that up. Really appreciate all the helpful posts here!
