Sorry if in wrong place, and lengthy UA newbie :
Booked a flight on UA.com for Wife a fews days ago .
OW BIZ A3 #A3880 ATH JFK via GVA LX 22 for 50K June 19th 2013
Now looking to put Mom in law on same flight and all I see is OW coach for 30K .Since Mom ion law has 25 K in her account and is not a big traveler wanted to burn them
Hate to pay 30K to put Mom in Law on same flight in Coach or pay $75 transfer fee to give 5k miles to her UA account or $188 to buy the 5k she needs .
Would prefer to get award from my UA acount for 50K . Any Biz availabillty seen anywhere on this flight for 50K so I get her on also
There is another route ATH A3 Coach A 3380 to VIE then Austrian air Biz # OS 87 showing availabilty for 2 in BIZ mixed cabins only . Economy to VIE.
Can I switch wife to this flught and put Mom in law on . Dont really want Economy VIE cause that may limit the baggae allowance to C . When I search for 1 seat on the ATH JFK route I get BIZ thru VIE no mixed cabin.
Is ther a fee to change tix if necessary . Wife and I have no status but wife has Chas UA card if that helps
Any way to seee actual availability . They have to be here for a wedding
Called and agent said availabilty usually shows up but the 18 and 20 th have lost saver awrd availabitly since yesterday , so dont know what to do
Thanks
