I'm not a frequent flyer, so I don't know what the usual response is
when an airline strikes. Could someone fill me in on what to expect if
United workers go on strike? Thanks!

I bought a one-way ticket on United for my husband to fly to Denver from
IND on June 24th. If there is a strike, would other airlines honor this
ticket? Would he be issued a refund for the ticket?

It's one-way since I was going to drive out to pick him up and then go
on vacation from there. If the ticket is refunded, I guess I drive out
with him and then spend a week hiking in Colorado until he finishes his
conference.

Thanks again for any information.

Why does there only have to be one correct philosophy? I don't want to
go and follow you just to end up like on of them and why are you always
telling me what you want me to believe? I'd like to think that I can go
my own way and meet you in the end.

I just wanted to add that he is e-ticketed, although we can get a paper
ticket for $20. I also used a credit card to purchase the ticket.

Thanks
