Doesn't mean he can't complain to them and try and get on a different flight
Life isn't about checking the boxes. Nobody cares.

What does it mean when flights stop appearing in United.com, KVS and Expert Flyer?

Does that mean they are completely sold out? Can it come back if someone cancels their ticket?
I remember when a coke was a nickel, and you could buy VRs in OD.

It doesn't make a difference for the fee, RT or one way.

I remember once seeing a post on dansdeals.com about looking up award availability via price tickets and enabling expert mode, anyhow cant find the post now but did that and now I see all the codes.

Which fare class do I look for First / business / economy award available seats for *A partners?

If I book a one way award with a sub 24 hr stop and then change the second flight to leave after 24 hrs will I be charged extra miles or will they just charge a changing fee?

You always have 24 hours to cancel, even you don't have the club card. And yes you will get back everything.
