Booked 7:30 PM EST, got my tickets 7:30 AM EST, and my available credit on my CC shows accordingly, but it's not actually showing up under pending charges.

Can I use that link to change payment. My brother accidentally used a card that has a forex fee
I did that and now my charge is still not pending but ticketed. Dunno if its worth the few extra bucks.

Yes. I did it for my BIL. He wasn't up yet so I put in my CC and I was charged.

How so? Special request does not have meals there and don't recall seeing it elswhere. Had this prob a while back on a EWR-BRU that needed a call.




FYI people are still getting LGA-MXP on AC for 250ish

Edit traveler information. The option to set meal preference is there.
I remember when a coke was a nickel, and you could buy VRs in OD.

Did anyone get the email saying that the cc was declined and wanted to keep the ticket and did it in time. How long till it got ticketed
My sister did it a few hours ago. Still waiting to get ticketed.

If someone has 2 First names. and I only put the first and last name, but left out the middle name, is there anything to worry about? Does it need to be added? How? By calling united?

You probably can just cancel one. But you risk an agent making an "oops" and canceling the whole thing. Happened to some people back on the LY YQ fiasco.
