If it's not free shipping it's not worth it.

RT? you found saver both ways?

Assuming yes to both its 90k RT for the united flight which if you value united miles at 1.3(for arguments sake) thats $1170 before fees.

Is this good? Sorry, but I'm not very experienced...

My goal is cheap, not perks so I don't care about class type

It should have the new "available to you as a chase card holder" underneath if it is.

Trying to change an award flight online. Expanded availability is showing up in a regular search, but not during the change process. Normal and PUTPAC, or is there a way to do it online?

Normal. Might have to HUCA to get a phone agent to do it.

2 United segments. One has 10 J seats open in the seatmap and says that 9 are available for a paid upgrade, and the other is showing 4 open but says upgrades are "waitlist only".

Does that mean that a CPU for the second leg won't automatically clear T-72 and I'll need to play the airport lotto?

Looks like I was correct. T-72, one segment is confirmed in J and the other is in waitlist.

Looking into booking NYC => IAD => JNB. Online it's pricing it up as two separate award tickets, so 25K/50K econ/first + 40K/80K econ/biz. Anyway to combine them into one booking so that I don't have to pay the extra miles for the NYC=>IAD leg?

If United doesnt come up with the routing on its own you will pay separate. Been that way since the "excursionist perk" switch.
