Question regarding layover/stopover
Hi Flyertalkers! I'm looking for some advice/insight into requesting a stopover in Tokyo. I have a RT ticket, ORD-OKA on United with the domestic portion being on ANA. I would like to have a 15-24 hour stopover in Narita without incurring additional charges (willing to absorb change ticket fee, if necessary). Is this possible? I did call United but they said I would have to pay 750.00 to pay for new itin. That is likely the final answer but I thought I would reach out to the United Travel Mavens here to see if there might be any work around that I am not aware of.
Thank you.
Thank you.

Thank you.
However, you'd be subject to current inventory levels and (most likely) pricing.
See what price you can get with matrix.itasoftware.com , then call UA and see if they can find the same price. You will have to pay the change fee plus any difference in fare from what you've already paid.
