    Using Velocity Points For United Trans Atlantic or Domestic Reward Seats - No Direct Option

    I'm going to call them and ask if it's possible. It's so strange that the flights appear from anywhere in the US to basically anywhere in EU if they go via somewhere in the US - but never show direct. Even the flights that show in the via options won't show direct. Frustrating as I want to do...

    Using Velocity Points For United Trans Atlantic or Domestic Reward Seats - No Direct Option

    You can get direct if you search through from AU. It's only the domestic US or Trans Atlantic legs that don't allow you to search direct. Eg. If you friend searched MEL - SFO, booked that, then SFO - FCO, it would route the second sector via somewhere.

    Using Velocity Points For United Trans Atlantic or Domestic Reward Seats - No Direct Option

    This seems really strange to me, and I understand yield, through availability etc but to me this is beyond that as it *never* shows. When searching for reward seats with United on the Velocity engine, whenever I search United flights within the USA or to Europe it only ever gives me itineraries...

    Further Status Extension to 28 Feb 2023

    Who would I call for that? Just the normal Platinum line? Or would I be better to email customer service?

    Further Status Extension to 28 Feb 2023

    I should have looked at that, or another regional city - but flights to those cities were fairly expensive. It was my choice, I understand that - and have to love with it. Just frustrating that they've got little expiring until April, but not May.

    Further Status Extension to 28 Feb 2023

    The 8 month extension is also for those who didn't take a flight - but had a review date until 30 April 2022. So I miss out on that by one month. I was going to book flights SYD - CBR prior to 28 March, but then VA stopped flying the route. Border restrictions from NSW made it difficult to go...

    Platinum upgrades on Choice and Elevate Fares - now to June 2022

    Mine currently shows 2 as well, but I also haven't used any. How did you convince them to give you the 4 they claim to?

    Further Status Extension to 28 Feb 2023

    Frustratingly for me, I've been platinum for several years but haven't been flying the last couple of years, but my expiry is 31 May 22. It means I don't get an extension, so looks like soft landing time for me. I was just about to start traveling again too.

    How to book Velocity Amex free flight?

    Same thing happened to be, but based on this thread I didn't call. Shows "Go" fare, you book and it's Choice. Assume it's booking T class and hangover from some previous system.
