• Discounted Saver Award is combinable with other award types as long as the itinerary is roundtrip (e.g., a member can book a Standard Award for the outbound portion of an itinerary and a Saver Award for the return portion, or vice versa) but only the flight segments purchased with a qualifying Saver Award will be eligible for a discount.
• For this offer, "roundtrip" is defined as travel from an origin city to a destination city with return travel ending at the origin city, and with all segments on flights operated by United Airlines.

Such taxes, fees and surcharges must be paid at the time of ticketing and are subject to change. Any valid unused award ticket may be returned to the MileagePlus Service Center, for a service charge, up to one year from the date of issue. Award seats are subject to availability and capacity-control restrictions apply. For more information on MileagePlus award travel visit united.com/awards.

• This offer is not combinable with other offers.
• Changes to travel itineraries are permitted in advance. Changes may be subject to additional service fees of up to $125 per ticket (based on account status at the time when the miles were redeemed).
• If a wholly unused ticket is exchanged for travel outside of the promotion period or travel that does not otherwise comply with the terms and conditions of this promotion, the mileage will be credited back into the member's account, subject to an applicable service charge, and a new ticket will be issued at the mileage redemption rate commensurate with the new award. Any changes made after the sale ticketing period ends will require a reissue of the entire ticket and sale pricing will not apply.
• If the value of a partially used ticket is applied to travel outside of the promotion period, the traveler must purchase a new one-way ticket or redeem a new one-way award at the applicable mileage-redemption rate. The unused return portion of the ticket is not valid for travel and cannot be credited back into the member's account.
• Redemption of additional award miles may be required if any portion of the itinerary is outside of the promotion period or does not otherwise comply with the terms and conditions of this promotion.
• This offer is subject to change or cancellation without notice. Other restrictions may apply.

Note that, like most recent UA award sales, these prices are only good for saver economy. There's no discount for saver business.

(As an aside, anyone looking for midweek saver business travel to HKG, your ship has come in: R9 IN6 I5 for ORD-HKG, Tuesday, Sep 18. Perhaps the more astonishing thing was that there was a connecting AUS-ORD flight with I inventory too. Admittedly, it was a Monday evening flight requiring an overnight stay, and just R3 I1, but domestic I inventory is pretty rare...)

nice to see *A partner connections included! Not seeing language around class of service here ... I assume this is coach only ... if Polaris is included I will be all over this!

You are right. IN tickets are not included in the sale. Otherwise, I will change my existing reservation for my wife in a minute..
Cheers.

Bummer that HNL isn't a part of this, might have considered it. HNL-SYD is 35k while U.S. Mainland-SYD is 32k now, although I guess the routing rules for these discounts preclude it anyways.

BigE

We were told that these reduced price award tickets can't be changed, even for 1ks. Any changes, no matter how minor, will trigger a complete reprice at the higher mileage rate (80k instead of 64k). We couldn't even change to a better routing but on the same day, with same origin and destination. Not happy about this

Kacee

Yes, those are the published terms and conditions:

Hope for SDC?

BigE

I see KC's point about this restriction (no free changes, no matter how minor) being stated within the T&C, but it's pretty harsh, in my opinion.

Some of the flights are on other carriers, so I don't think SDC is even an option.

Maybe a helpful check-in agent could change it?

WineCountryUA

Only if switching to an all UA routing.

Not with partner flights

BigE

Good points! Thanks for the help (FTers are so much more helpful than UA agents).

princeville

A schedule change could still save the day.

This is good to know. We booked a flight to AKL during the sale, but once we started planning our time there we realized we wanted to start on the south island. I wondered if I could pay the change fee to add a domestic flight so we could have the protection of having it all on one ticket, but now I have my answer. I guess we'll do a separate booking for AKL-ZQN and cross our fingers that there are no significant delays getting to AKL.

BullishGS

That's disappointing, I was just about to call in to make changes to a NYE trip.
