What is United Airlines Travel Credit?

United Airlines travel credit is given to passengers as a form of compensation who experience flight cancellations, flight delays, or other travel disruptions. The travel credits are used to book future flights on United Airlines and its partner airlines, allowing customers to save money on expenses. 

United Airlines provide two travel credit types; Future flight credit and travel certificate. Future credit is issued when you cancel your trip or change the flight to a cheaper one. Travel certificates are issued when you give up your seat voluntarily as a gesture of goodwill. 

Travel credit is different from United Airlines' frequent flyer miles program, which allows customers to earn miles that can be redeemed for free flights or other rewards.
