Daily

United MileagePlus is changing the way members book multi-city award travel and change or cancel award flights.

Starting Oct. 6, members can create multi-city award travel itineraries, using search filters specifically designed for this purpose. The ability to book either multiple one-way awards for a multi-city trip replaces the previous Round-the-World award options. Additionally, the new Excursionist Perk means members receive a free one-way award flight within qualifying multi-city award itineraries, so long as the itinerary includes three or more one-way award flights. The Excursionist Perk replaces prior relevant stopover policies and discounted stopovers are discontinued.

Flight change and redeposit fees are now based on how close in time a new flight is to the original flight. General members pay $75 for changes made 61 days or more from the original flight date, and $125 for changes made 60 days or less from the original flight date. Premier Silver members pay $50 and $100; Premier Gold members pay $25 and $75; and Premier Platinum members pay $0 and $50, respectively. Premier 1K and United Global Services members pay no fees for changes at any time. For non-U.S. members, change fees are now processed in the local currency. These changes also take effect Oct. 6.
