United Airlines has revised its ticketing policies for its customers with travel plans to and from Los Cabos and Puerto Vallarta, Mexico affected by Tropical Storm Lane. These revised policies apply to all customers ticketed on or before Sept. 14, 2006, for travel between Sept. 15 and Sept. 18, 2006, to/from these cities on any United(R), United Express(R), Ted(SM) or United code-share flight.

For customers currently en route who would like to make one change to their return trip, rules and restrictions regarding standard change fees, advance purchases, day or time applications, blackouts and minimum or maximum stay requirements have been waived. Origin and destination cities must remain the same.

For customers who have not begun travel, one change to their travel plans may be made without change fees or advance purchase requirements for the same itinerary. For a new itinerary, one change may be made without change fees. Rescheduled travel may be subject to higher fares if it does not meet original rule and booking code restrictions or is a new itinerary.

Only customers with already canceled flights are eligible for a full refund.

All changes must be made by midnight of the customer's original travel date, and rescheduled travel must begin no later than Sept. 30, 2006, on completely unused tickets. Customers may make these changes by calling United reservations at 1-800-UNITED-1 or a travel agency.

Customers are advised to visit united.com or to call 1-800-UNITED-1 for flight status information. Customers may also take advantage of United's Easy Update service, which automatically provides flight status notifications via e-mail, mobile phone or pager. If a flight has been canceled, customers should call United at 1-800-UNITED-1 (1-800-864-8331), a travel agency, or use an EasyCheck-in kiosk to rebook their flight. United will continue to monitor the situation and adjust ticketing policies as necessary.
