re: United First class mistake fare tickets

I ended up booking 6 tickets. Two round trips(1 for me/1 for my wife) and two one ways from LHR to MSY. I didn't get creative with the routing as I needed these to be minimal travel time tickets due to my wife's lack of vacation time and me wanting to book expeditiously.

Both of our Tickets:
LHR-ORD-MSY
MSY-ORD-LHR
LHR-ORD-MSY

She's coming on one trip with me and not the other, so I'll have to eat the return trip home on her ticket and get a one way award ticket there for me.

I overlapped them so I could get her back to MSY since you had to originate in Europe. I didn't think all of this through very thoroughly . I should've booked my one way as a round trip.

It came out to $57/ticket or about $70 each way factoring in the ticket I will have to eat.

All of this is still up in the air as we will have to wait to see if the tickets are honored. Pretty skeptical, but who knows.
