Using Cancelled Ticket to Pay for United Codeshare
I recently cancelled a nonrefundable itinerary that was made up of United and United codeshare flights. Can I apply the value of this ticket (minus the $100 change fee) to the purchase of a United codeshare flight or must my new itinerary be on UA/UX metal only?

Ticket Credits
The credit itself will last 1 year from the date that it was originally ticketed on. So lets say 20 FEB 2007 was when you purchased your ticket, and got ticketed, then 1 year from that date.

As long as you book through United, so a ticket on UA stock, it doesn't matter if it is codeshare or not.

A related question: can you use the value of a refundable fare to pay for a non-refundable ticket, paying the difference if the nonrefundable fare happens to be more expensive than the refundable one is?
In particular, I'm looking to use the value of a refundable domestic ticket to help pay for a nonrefundable international United codeshare flight.
I know I could just refund the refundable fare, but I'd rather go about it this way.

Similar situation would apply if you had a mixed carrier itinerary (i.e. UA and DL flights) issued on a 016 ticket. The new ticket doesn't need to contain DL flights and you only have to pay one UA change fee.

Does anyone know the answer for sure?
Can I use a cancelled ticket (credit) to rebook on an United codeshare (operated by US airways)??
