Has anyone been able to change the name on the ticket? I want to change the first name to my mom so she can go instead of me.

When is your flight?
Was the email saying enjoy meaning that its not gonna get cancelled. Or was it a generic email they send to everyone x amount of days before they're scheduled trip?

I think he's trying the "add middle name, take first name off" thing.

What are the chances United won't honor?
After all, AC is honoring.
#UnitedFriendly or #UnitedUnfriendly?

If I were to upgrade my EWR-MXP k class ticket to business it would cost 20k miles plus $550 - which class would I then be booked in? I want to know if I would earn 200% of the mileage, which would then get me to *A gold on Aegean.
And even if it would work, is ti worth the price being paid?

There was never a glitch that we were so pessimistic in the beginning that worked out like this.

Though I wasn't around to experience it, from reading the "4 mile Island" thread it seems like people were more pessimistic about that, as it was a more ridiculous glitch, and the DOT regulations were newer.
