United credit card award availability

[isac]

Do the united credit cards give better availability on award redemption in saverpass.  Is it automatic, when the card is link to your FF#?   

[Ergel]

Exactly

[President St.]

Any Ua card holders have personal experience when logging in you get better availability?

[isac]

Exactly

Any experience?

Per my experience; having the card makes no difference what so ever!

[Devorah]

I've seen availability come up that wasn't there before I logged in.

Wow, I feel like DDF changed overnight.

UA has separate fare buckets for Saver Economy, and Standard Economy/Business/Fisrt for CC holders and elites.

Here a trick to find the extra Standard space: Its up to the last seat, so if it's available for sale, and isn't available for someone without the cc, its only available for someone with the cc

@Platinum Guy   heres a question for you . I have  a lot more points on original really old FF # that was linked with UA MPE card that's cancelled .

Now new FF# that is linked with new active  UA card so when I merge them, do  I have to make my new FF #  the default for more availability.

Concerned about old transfers from SP to original UA account.

No more expanded first saver awards.

No more expanded first saver awards.

I'm sorry for you...but I'm happy ...now just hoping that happens with IN

There's no indication it means more availability for non elites, probably just keep the extra inventory for C>F UGs

[Dan]

Indeed.
Typical have-not attitude.

I wonder if they will still open it for GS to be saver awards like they do for RN and T

[PlatinumGuy]

Very smart business decision, significant enhancement to the C product. They should make int'l C>F CPU IMHO

So if I understand correctly , there is no expanded Biz or F for CC holders that are not elites, only expanded economy which I never travel  TATL if I can help it .
