When booking round trip which includes a flight on UA itself, and a partner airline, will UA charge the miles rate based on the UA flight, or the partner ?

You mean one way UA and the other partner?

That i believe has to do with the main/longer leg, or something along those lines. Whichever carrier has that, it would price like that.

How do you change a missed united award flight? I recall people saying here it was possible to rebook even after missing the flight.

I remember when a coke was a nickel, and you could buy VRs in OD.

Is flying from Lgr, or EWR, and landing in Jfk considered an open jaw ?

Metro is " NY AREA AIRPORTS " Newark  JFK LGA -- When u search for flight depending on airline they will offer all or some off them since they treat them as one

I have a flight booked on Sep/9 through United on LH, ( yes I should have used SQ miles) and there seems to be a strike coming  where would be best to call to rebook United or Lufthansa?
Somewhere it was mentioned about a "force sell"  how can I push them to rebook me in the same class of service?

Yes. I had united "call me" and they rebooked me on their own metal, even though there was no saver award available and my flight was not cancelled yet she pushed it through.

 Also she said its the first I'm hearing of the strike so hold on. she comes back and says yes I just was it on CNN its like the 13th strike in over 2 years we had some small talk about strikes, and the whole working atmosphere at United Etc.
