Flying with an infant on United (adult booked with points), do they allow a baggage for the infant? economy & business. Thanks
I know on international flights that the lap child is required to pay 10% fare that the lap child gets the same allowance as the adult (If adult gets 2 bags the child will also)

what's the chances  a united premier silver will get upgraded on a long haul flight to TLV to business (and their companion as well)?

Zero, or less.

As PG notes, zero, because there are no complimentary upgrades on long haul for any status, except maybe GS?
You could ask if you apply plus points or other means what are the chances and I think they are still pretty low. Maybe during off season if there is such a thing now.

Unless you transfer first to Marriott and then from there to United. But you will lose much of your points value that way.

Booked a hidden city award ticket LIS-EWR-BOS. Anyone know if I can call to cancel second leg?
Not too worried if I can't, as luggage needs to be rechecked regardless.

Booked a ridiculous hidden city award from TLV- South America. Got off in EWR yesterday. I had put in my TK loyalty number as I was suggested to do that. Today I got an email from TK: Your flight from TLV to EWR with

UA 0091 on 20/7/2022 has been credited into your Miles&Smiles account.

You have earned 9488 Miles for the related flight.

Your current Mileage balance is shown below.

Total Miles: 9488

Best Regards,

Miles&Smiles


And I checked my TK account and they posted. Anyone ever has anything like this happen??

Does a stopover flight counts as two flight segments towards elite status? I need to get in one more so Im thinking of making one of my flights into a stopover-just to reach the status.

Probably wrong thread, but didn't see a general UA thread.
