I couldn't resist. My mother, the nicest, most polite women you'll ever meet, on a United flight now London to Newark, askes for a cup of water, he gives her like 2 oz. She then points to my sister holding some medication, if he can bring some more water so she can swallow her pills, the guy answers her, "That will do it. What else do you need, maybe you want me to call her a paramedic?"  ::)

Last week when a supervisor hung up the phone on me when I tried convince her to open up JN space with my UA account that's attached to my club card. (There was space avail to purchase just not with mileage) UA gave me $100.

The 1st rep was a US Supervisor, so 1st i called back and got a foreign one, That I was able to convince her that due to the contract Chase has with UA, If I have  UA CC they are obligated to give me the seat, which she did after almost an hour on hold! (but i really enjoyed getting a seat for 60k UA that priced $3500+). Then I called back to complain, so the told me to file a complaint by United.com/feedback. I got the voucher the next morning!

  • Location: The value of a forum such as this one is not in that one can post a question and receive an answer, but in that the question has most likely been asked before, and the answer is available to him that will but only use the search function.
  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.

IMHO in this case it's better not to have one
Can make it sound a lot more dramatic than it was and score more on the comp

@Dan and @jj1000 why are you guys in the same thread at the same time? Don't you take shifts?  :P

The truth is they were ready to give me Y on the SFO-PSP leg, but I insisted on J, It was more for the fun of it!

The end of the story, I had to cancel anyway because I had to change the date, so I just took B6 direct

This would be saver ;)
thanks for the free lesson, is the next one free as well?

If u want I can fwd the email that was sent to UA with the reply!

On the other hand maybe it's not such a major deal if its a standard award.


I believe JJ was referring to the OPs story.

Someone told me they were flying from LAX to Syd on UA in the 90s. (Obviously, nobody could get Away with stuff like this these days). This guy had his full family on the flight. Few young kids. They were probably being difficult. fA asked the mother, if she ever considered family planning.

Asking what Y J Saver is on DDF is like asking what binary is when you walk into google's hq.

Disclaimer: I have no idea what they are myself I just know that it's the mama lashon over here.
If it's not free shipping it's not worth it.

Oh binary very simple think of switches that could be two positions on/off every bit is 8 bytes every byte is a switch bingo!
2 to the power of 8 = 256 thats why everything jumps
4*256 = 1024
2^0 = 1
2^1 = 2
2^2 = 4
2^3 = 8
2^4 = 16
2^5 = 32
2^6 = 64
2^7 = 128
2^8 = 256
2^9 = 512
2^10 = 1024
So these 1024 Bytes is equal to 1 KiloBytes. And 1024 KB is equal to 1 MB and so on

IE 11111001  = 128,64,32,16,8,4,2,1 128+64+32+16+0+0+1 = 249  Or (256 -(4+2)) = 249
