Miles & Money Awards
|
If you are low on award miles—or want to save miles for later—you can combine miles and money to book your trip. For example, instead of paying 25,000 miles for a roundtrip Economy Saver Award within North America, you may be able to user fewer miles and make up the difference with cash.
Late in the first quarter of 2012, we will temporarily stop offering Miles & Money Awards. We will honor all tickets booked prior to that date. 
The facts
 Miles & Money Awards are available on Saver and Standard awards in all classes of service. They are not offered on Star Alliance Awards or awards on other partner airlines.
Miles & Money Awards may not be offered on every United/United Express flight to every destination.
When offered, the amount of money needed will be based on your trip’s origin and destination, and the flight selected.
When you book your tickets, we’ll deduct the miles, and you pay the money portion by credit card.
You may make certain changes to your award ticket at any time or get a refund before you travel, though you may be charged a fee. Learn more about award ticket fees.
Because it is an award ticket, you will not earn award miles, elite status miles or elite status segments.
How to Book
The first step is to search for your flight. You can book online on mileageplus.com or united.com (U.S. site only).
If a Miles & Money Award is available for your flight, the miles and money amounts will display on the Miles & Money tab on the trip dock, at the bottom of the flight selection screen.
