In a United Airlines review,Yelper Marksaid, “I strongly advise people avoid the basic economy tickets.
Yes, I saved about $50, but there were many hassles.”
Regular economy seating includes limited advanced seating assignments unless you have elite status.
It’s the same with Premium Plus (premium economy), first class, or Polaris business class.
You will, however, have to pay a fare difference if the price goes up.
As for carry-on bags, they’re typically included in the price of your economy ticket.
If in doubt, call the airline to confirm your baggage allowance based on your fare class and destination.
Boarding was en masse, [a] free for all!
What’s available will depend on the route you’re flying and the bang out of aircraft operating it.
Premium Plus
United’s international and transcontinental premium economy section feels a lot like domestic first class.
This is the way to go on international flights without paying the higher cost… for business class."
And as severalYelpers have notedin recent United Airlines reviews, that access can be inconsistent to say the least.
The annual fee for this card is $250.
Its $95 annual fee is waived the first year.
