With a refund? I am past the 24 hour mark and I want to cancel. When I try to do it through United site it says no refund will be given.

How do you reconcile that with them being glad to cancel? Are they making money or not?
Unless they're having second thoughts about their big idea.:D

Just emailed Widero and they responded within 10 minutes of my email that the ticket is canceled with a full refund.

Do we know if this was a rogue employee or  management decision? Seems pretty dumb to destroy your relationship with *A over a few hundred thousand dollars or even a few million

Hi, United wants 20,000 miles & $550 to upgrade to business EWR-ZRH (one way) is there any way around the $550? Maybe with a partner program? Thanks
