I'm trying to book EWR-LHR in J. Currently it's showing almost all business class avail for purchase but not in saver. I have seats in Y as of now. Is there an option to upgrade with miles should J become available or will I have to rebook? What's the penalty for canceling Y that was booked with miles?

booked Y saver? Check out plan B.

Thanks. Will I be able to use the same ticket or do I have to cancel and rebook it?

You can do plan B after you already booked?

I thought that yes, apparently not

No. The only reason plan b works is that you got them to charge you for j class. Which makes you a displaced biz class passenger.

So I need to rebook a new ticket correct?

Yes. Are you still in 24 hours of booking?

Expert mode shows IN2 and when logged into a cardholder account, it's not available. What can I be doing wrong? (Or can it be phantom?)

IN is only for platinum and above unlike XN which is for cardholders and all elites

Apologies if this is old news but, I just tried to change an award flight within 24 hours and United wants to charge the $75 close-in fee. Is that the way it is now?

Miles and More has a Biz seat from TLV- FRA-EWR on Lufthansa and a TLV-VIE-EWR on Austrian. I don't see that flight on United.com. Should a Uinted phone rep be able to get it? How about on Signapore? Thanks.
