Anywhere to sell airline e-certificate/voucher?
 

Anyone know of a specific website that sells these? Have any experience with it?

I have an e-certificate and a paper voucher from United flights from which I volunteered to be bumped. Looking at the dates, I won't be able to use them as I had hoped before their mid-April expiry. I've checked the T&C and it does not say non-transferable. I heard from someone or maybe from a podcast of a website that sells these but can't remember the name. Hoping someone here knows - thx!

Enjoy-la!

I doubt very much they can be sold without violating some rule.

Oh, was unaware of that since I'm pretty sure I heard of it on a podcast. I won't bother pursuing it then.

Enjoy-la!

Read this about Southwest reward tickets; I am guessing that something similar holds for United. I think you would be ok trying to sell it to someone that you knew or a friend of a friend, not using craigslist or ebay. Not sure, but thought this might be useful.

Some are and some are not transferable - you need to check with the airline to determine that. If they are transferable, you can join the scads of others selling them on ebay or craigslist.

"Transferable" doesn't necessarily mean "saleable."

Thx for the extra info! :)

Enjoy-la!

What happens to the unsuspecting buyer who, if the situation comes to the airline's attention, denies the voucher or denies boarding?

I was in a similar situation a few years ago, and transferred the voucher to a friend's daughter. We did it through a travel agency, and paid a small fee. I seem to recall that there was some stipulation that the voucher had to be a gift, and not sold. It WAS a gift, but obviously if it had been a private monetary transaction, no one would have known.

Maybe you know someone who can use it? Working through an agent or the airline would insure that there wouldn't be any problems for the user.

Klam Chowder, are you from Singapore or do you have some connection to there? Don't they frequently add "la" to the ends of sentences? :)
