Yet..

Every month or so another airline says "you think that was bad? wait till you see this".

Truth. Sad how far this industry has fallen.

In other news, where is the DDMS post about this?

A quality post takes time, especially when I'm traveling.

Booked UA OW award at 25k, now XN9 is showing as available. Would I still pay fee if I just want to swap out of the 25k award into the 12.5k one? Itinerary is 21+ days out.

Im so confused, can someone help me out:)

If I book a one way on united from EWR-YVR can I add on a leg to LAX? (or ewr-lax-Yvr) with the last part being a few weeks out or does it only work RT where I would do EWR-YVR/YVR-Ewr-LAX? And if Yes Can I do that online or do I have to do over the phone

A. Stopovers only work RT.
B. No free stopover for US/Canada.

Clearly pricing it as 2 OWs.

Europe-Europe in J at 30k and Europe-US in J at 70k.

And is that how it's supposed to price or is it a glitch?

I cant even get AC to validate it as a valid routing.

AC can price it for you as OW + OW (not as a MC).

It should be one award, not two. I dont know why its pricing that way. Its squarely within ACs multicity routing rules. Have never been able to get that to work properly either.
