• Is there difference in award availability if you search in incognito mode or private browsing?

    Posted by Rosa on November 1, 2023 at 4:05 pm

    When conducting award searches, is it best to do these using private browsing mode such as incognito?

    I’m looking to find a couple of tickets on United Airlines heading to Vegas and Saver awards are just not available yet and the flight is pretty empty so I’m sure it’s going to be released it’s just a matter of time.

    I like to check the flights a couple of times a week just to see if anything changed but I’m nervous about being tracked by United that someone’s looking for a specific destination.

    This is where Expert Flyer would have come in handy, but unfortunately, it no longer supports United and many other Star Alliance programs.

    This is an old urban myth that has been disproven many, many times over. Incognito, clearing cookies, etc. will have very little impact, if any, on what the airline website shows for available tickets.
