The wording mentions the no residual value for the "change" but then separately talks about cancellation and forgets to mention the no residual value there. At least to me, it made me think cancel was different than change. But that would be confusing. And you are right, cancel + rebook is the same as a change.
I had just booked a trip to TLV and thought I might just hold on to and and see what happens thinking I can just cancel. But I will think I will go ahead and cancel at the 24hr mark. Though if Israel really started to ban US entry, I would think UA would have a separate waiver (allowing a full refund). Or just cancel the route.

EWR-ZRH was rolled out just before X-mas.

UA has a good number of flights to LAS, as does SW.

Just was told that I am not going to be able to travel again until further notice.
Terrible time to be in the airline business... hopefully the airlines are better run these days, and that they can hedge some of their fuel costs with the low oil prices and position for the future.
Safe travels to those that are still able to do so.

So are they parking all the retrofitted 772s? I assume the 789 is considerably more efficient, but they're essentially un-Polarizing virutally all the SFO routes. Not a great way to spur new paid bookings.
UA hasn't been flying to HKG since mid-February.

I wonder, if the travel bans and restrictions continue... will airlines be restructuring status requalification..... just a thought. I lost a couple big int'l trips as a result of corona, and if this continues on for even a few months, it may compromise my ability to get much beyond G this year.

Travel Waiver and Schedule Change
UA's official policy is :
I purchased a ticket before March 3rd. I noticed an itinerary change upon checking my reservation. Strangely, I received no e-mail from United about this. I took advantage of their policy allowing for changes where there is more of a thirty minute difference. I changed the day (as allowed) also. I am wondering if, should I need it, they would allow me to make a change under the current March 3 - March 31 policy. I am guessing that "original ticket issue date" may be a point of contention.
Tickets: For tickets issued March 3 through March 31, 2020, customers will be permitted to change free of charge to a flight of equal or lesser value up to 12 months from the original ticket issue date.

On Sunday wait time was nearly two hours. I didn't hang up because I did on Saturday after 90 minutes. Didn't want to wait again. But it was worth it. I paid no award change charges, got a credit of $90 for each ticket (not sure why), a redeposit of 15,000 miles each ticket and a forced domestic first class connector flight to EU (SEA-ORD) for the 60K one -way tickets. So, the one-way aware tickets ended up as 45K each. I had itinerary planned as replacement but the rep at first said she couldn't do what I asked but said she'd ask her supervisor. She came back on phone and said supervisor said just do it. She then manually entered the itinerary I proposed right form the start. UA probably going to cancel again (ORD-FRA) but who knows. Good luck all.

that said, I don’t think there are a lot of reports of how firm UA is holding on the booking dates for changes. I for one, have a trip that was to begin on Friday, but we’re not going because the event has been canceled. Ticket was booked before March 3, but you can bet I’m going to call and see if they are flexible about waiving the change fee. I realize they are under no obligation - but figure it’s definitely worth a shot.
