United Airlines allows passengers to change flight dates or times on most tickets, depending on the fare rules. Fees may apply for changes, and the cost depends on the type of ticket, route, and timing of the change.

When You Can Change a Flight

• Most standard economy and business fares allow date or time changes

• Flexible or premium tickets often allow free or lower-fee changes

• Same-day changes may be available for a reduced fee

Change Fees

• Fees depend on the fare type and the route (domestic vs international)

• Some tickets purchased under basic economy or promotional fares may not allow changes

• Fare differences between the original and new flight may still apply

How to Make a Flight Change

1. Use the airline’s Manage Booking tool online with your booking reference and last name

2. Select the flight you want to change and choose a new date or time

3. Review any change fees or fare differences and confirm the update

4. If online changes aren’t possible, contact customer support

Important Tips

• Check your ticket’s fare rules before attempting to change the flight

• Make changes as early as possible to reduce fees and ensure availability

• Some third-party bookings may need to be changed through the original booking agent
