The Basic Economy fare squeeze is on. The $96 fare is Basic Economy – on United, this means, no advanced seat assignments and no regular size carry-on (only one personal item is allowed and it must fit under the seat). The regular fare that allows for advanced seat assignments and normal size carry-ons is $166. We will show you how to find availability for both. Both are within our 6 cents per mile criterion.

The squeeze is on in the sense of pricing. The gap between Basic Economy and regular fare is huge – until today, the gap that we have seen between Basic Economy and regular is usually $30 roundtrip. This fare is $70. For Basic Economy, United will charge you $25 for a regular size carry-on.
