We are aware that there are some rare instances, where international surcharge is being excluding from the display of award miles and PQD when viewing your upcoming reservation on United.com. We expect to have the earnings display corrected shortly. Please rest assured that the final earnings reflected in your Account summary once you have flown will include the surcharge.

-UA Insider
NOTE: The overwhelming consensus is that preflight PQD/PQM/RDM information on an itinerary is frequently wrong for inexplicable reasons, but it being wrong on the itinerary has no bearing on whether correct PQD/PQM/RDM will post to your MP account after flying a segment. So don't worry if things look wrong pre-flight; it is only necessary to contact MP if post-flight posting is incorrect.

Incorrect/Ineligible projected earning information showing on my itinerary {Archive}

Update to my receipts now show the RDMs earned prior to flying.

This is for EWR-SFO, and SFO-EWR.

MileagePlus® totals: 3,003 Award Miles
5,130 PQM | 2 PQS | $273 PQD
View MileagePlus earning information (This is a link that then opens a pop-up):

Mr. aacharya Award miles PQM PQS PQD
Premier® 1K member 3,003 5,130 2 $273
EWR - SFO 1,529 2,565 1 $139
SFO - EWR 1,474 2,565 1 $134
Total: 3,003 5,130 2 $273

Also - if there are waitlisted flights (for upgrades), this notice will appear, but the breakdown will still be there at the link:

This itinerary includes one or more flights that are ineligible to earn mileage or Premier qualifying credit

No, that's accurate. The taxes and fees aspect is never accurate on the receipt, as some taxes and fees are in the "price".

Interesting...do you have any non-UA flights on there? (I was assuming something was amiss in international surchage or something else, even though YQ is part of PQD).

I think there are YQ issues. My $424 EWR-MXP trip says "PQS:2, PQD: $51", but there is more than $51 YQ in that fare.

The 'international surcharge' portion of tickets (YQ) is not being added to the quoted amounts. Thus, I see an incrrect totals for PQD and RDM.

What ones are not showing?

Only missing on award reservations for me but non-016 stock might also be missing.

Note on multiple person PNRs, it is a little different and is called "View MileagePlus earning information"

My international itins look correct

Although multiple flags suggesting partner data may not be correct.
This itinerary includes one or more flights that are ineligible to earn mileage or Premier qualifying credit.
Award miles shown are the miles that can be earned for this flight. Mileage accrued will vary depending on the terms and conditions of your frequent flyer program.

I am missing it on one, which just went through a schedule change and re-ticketing to a different routing this morning. That might be a reason? Other than that, I have information on all of mine (9 so far).

The ticket ttal is $487 and I'm seeing this:

MileagePlus® totals:
1,166 Award Miles
7,394 PQM | 2 PQS | $106 PQD


1 Adult (18-64) $106.00
Additional Taxes/Fees $381.20
Total $487.20

Taxes/Fees
U.S. Customs User Fee $5.50
U.S. APHIS User Fee $5.00
U.S. Federal Transportation Tax $35.00
U.S. Immigration User Fee $7.00
Norway Passenger Charge $18.60
International Surcharge $300.00
U.S. Passenger Facility Charge $4.50
September 11th Security Fee $5.60


I have additional reservations with the same problem, some of which have partner flights attached. Those partner flights, despite being issued as 016 tickets (for travel on LH for example) display the message, "Ineligible to accrue mileage or Premier qualifying credit."
