Yes.
I don't like unilateral cancellations.  That's a violation of IATA and not honoring a mistake make this 2 violations.
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.

Anybody try to reissue? the CHANGE FEE would prob be the correct amount of miles...

Quote from: FT
Sounds like they're following UAInsiders statement afterall. They will give a choice to those that actually have a choice--to keep the reservation at full miles. Those with no miles were never in a position to make a choice.

If you have tons of UR, but your Chase account is empty - and you try to book a flight on Chase.com -it won't work.

Could've would've should've doesn't help.

Would anyone care to provide reasoned and well thought out language for the body of the complaint? I.e. how best to explain the situation?
How do you get a group of lawyers to smile for a picture?

Time to unpack :D

Suits is coming up.



Our best hope is that UA cancels a ticket for someone who is already on the way, leaving him stranded. That will ensure the public/media/DoT take our side.

Wonder what the regulations are in the other countries...
