Lifemiles award travel child ticket
« on: December 02, 2019, 08:10:01 PM »
Hi all, I would like to use lifemiles to book a one way award travel ticket for a 5 year old on United - is there any way through lifemiles to book this? (the child would not actually be traveling alone, but I will need to purchase my ticket separately using money as it will be paid for by my company).

Thanks!

Call?  Have the reservation code of  your already booked ticket?
Would that work for him?

Could be worth a try - just thought from reading through that it's almost impossible to get anything done with LifeMiles on the phone

Make up a birthday
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

:o
Tell me more! Assuming make up a >18yr old birthday, book the ticket, then will I need to change it to her correct birthday with United at some point?

Thanks!

No need to change it. It’s never verified. Nobody sees the dob you entered while booking
