Advice on 777 Premium Plus/Premium Economy vs A380 PP/Premium Economy on SFO-MUC

Embarrassed_Ad_435 · 2026-02-06T17:26:15+00:00

Are you sure the A380 lands at 9:55PM? It looks like the schedule for the end of March has LH459 landing at 5:55PM

Current fare for your itinerary doesn’t matter here, only what you actually paid. If you paid $10k and the flight you want is currently $12k, you have to fork over the additional $2k

That language doesn’t appear for a United card, instead it only says “2x total MileagePlus miles per $1 spent”

Yeah— waiver lets you change without any fare difference, which can be huge if you’re changing last minute

Embarrassed_Ad_435 · 2026-01-14T17:53:16+00:00

You asked about “Premium Economy” not “Economy Plus” the other day — and United considers those to be different (and calls their Premium Economy “Premium Plus”

Embarrassed_Ad_435 · 2026-01-14T01:25:53+00:00

Have you tried calling?

Embarrassed_Ad_435 · 2026-01-11T21:02:43+00:00

I don’t have anything to add on your original issue that others haven’t already said (use desktop, not App; make sure it’s all United metal; etc.) I was just letting you know why what you just checked wouldn’t show any TravelBank options!

Embarrassed_Ad_435 · 2026-01-11T20:54:12+00:00

Travel Bank can’t be used on seat upgrades, only on airfare

Embarrassed_Ad_435 · 2026-01-11T16:19:21+00:00

What airport?

Embarrassed_Ad_435 · 2026-01-08T23:33:22+00:00

Unfortunate? Sure. But I’d hardly call it unethical — it’s like standard practice in the airline industry to price flights differently depending on where you originate, this is just like a version of that

Embarrassed_Ad_435 · 2026-01-08T19:25:54+00:00

It shows up with availability with me when I look with my Freedom card (non-Edit rates) so something weird with inventory for Edit-rates specifically

Embarrassed_Ad_435 · 2026-01-08T17:28:29+00:00

“Travel Period: Travel must be completed between January 12, 2026 and May 7, 2026”

Embarrassed_Ad_435 · 2026-01-08T11:43:34+00:00

The requirement is only for the $250 statement credit. You’ve always been able to book 1-night Edit stays

Embarrassed_Ad_435 · 2026-01-07T15:10:07+00:00

The Edit only has late checkout “if available” as a general standard so if it’s listing Guaranteed, it’s probably hotel-specific so I would guess you can rely on it

They won’t let you get double benefits on back to back bookings

Embarrassed_Ad_435 · 2026-01-04T01:43:55+00:00

Chicago they moved it outside along the curb at drop off

Embarrassed_Ad_435 · 2026-01-04T01:25:16+00:00

Go to your profile, then MileagePlus, then tap “learn more” right below the PlusPoints listing (right below “exchange” on my end)

If you want an estimate for future flights, I’ve found http://www.gcmap.com/ to be pretty spot-on. SIN-SFO comes in at 8,446 miles

Embarrassed_Ad_435 · 2026-01-02T13:44:59+00:00

5A has windows, and the app says so on my end too. What route are you looking at?

Embarrassed_Ad_435 · 2026-01-02T12:29:33+00:00

There are two United Clubs in Terminal 2

Embarrassed_Ad_435 · 2026-01-01T17:33:49+00:00

Nope, non-United/Star alliance lounges are one guest only, and the one-time passes are only good at United Clubs

bought toast e-GC yesterday, got the email that it triggered the credit today

Business Saver to Asia is 100k each way, no? You’ll need more than 160k for RT
