Avoiding 75$FEE
HI FT Members
is there anyway for avoid the 75us$ fee for book an award flight with united airlines?
i want to flight with Copa airlines. using miles of united through the united web site
but am inside the 3 weeks of the planned travel
I heard once to book sameflight for a date after 3 weeks, then make a call and ask for a change of date...
but i think changing dates of an emitted award tickets has an extra fee.
please thank you for your help

You can also get the United Club credit card, which waives this fee, although the annual fee is much more than $75. It would take some time for United to update your account, though, so this may not be helpful for immediate travel.
Nothing else comes to mind.
