You my friend are a moron.

Lol oh lord... How many times has it been said not to call united... And to add a middle name that doesn't need to be on the reservation:)

Some of the comments on the blog post accusing Dan of god knows what are really comical... But it would be beyond their comprehension that this wasn't a dans deal and all Dan does is publicize it for others like myself to take advantage of it

I really think there is almost no issue with calling United. It's not their ticket stock. They are not allowed to touch it. And as long as you don't say "Check out the price I got" (which if ticketed in NOK, means nothing to them anyway) the odds of them noticing are thin as is

And that also means the odds of them honoring are also thin?

@Chaikel

If you and I called there would probably be no issue. Though it's the n00bs and braindeads that call, and I don't think anything is beyond them.

ETA:
"I just booked the price mistake and I'm not getting ticketed!"

"Why can't I see the price mistake in united.com?

"How much is 5000 NOK?"

@Mocha and others:

Just go to united.com to change seats and meals.

If you can't figure out how to change your meals, you are probably the same person who shouldn't be calling in the first place.

Umm..
With all due respect, you seem to be the one making the most noise.

@Mocha
Just pointing you out because you said don't call to change meals, but didn't mention anything about using the site. I was referring to you for my first sentence and "others" for the rest.

Noise is good when it's in response to peeps calling UA Einstein.
@Mocha

Don't think the meals can be chosen online when the ticket is not issued from UA...think it will eventually need a call. Seats on the other hand can be chosen now.

It says on united.com that my reservation is confirmed and ticketed and I have a pending charge on my cc, but doesn't say anywhere what my ticket number is and didn't get any email about being ticketed with a ticket number.
