United MileagePlus
program updates

Last year, we unveiled an updated award booking experience, a new fee structure and a free one-way award within select multi-city itineraries called the Excursionist Perk. We’re now introducing a new award travel option, Everyday Awards, which features pricing that will vary from flight to flight. We’ll publish an award chart for Everyday Awards so that you’ll know the highest number of miles needed for each award. Everyday Awards will replace Standard Awards for all tickets booked on or after November 1, 2017.

We’re continuing to offer Saver Awards and are also introducing an updated Saver Award chart for tickets booked on or after November 1, 2017. You’ll notice that some routes will have pricing changes, including lower prices for most short-haul intra-region Economy awards for regions outside of the U.S., such as flights within Europe. However, there will be no pricing changes for Economy Saver Award travel to, from or within the 48 contiguous United States.
