According to the Matrix Airfare Search by ITA Software, prices start at $287 for Regular Economy. If you book with United, expect prices to drop to $197 for Basic Economy and remain at $287 for Regular Economy.
The $287 fare includes advance seat assignments and a standard-sized carry-on bag.
While United offers a Basic Economy fare for $187, it’s important to note that this fare does not allow for advance seat selection; seats are randomly assigned during check-in. Also, if your carry-on doesn’t fit under the seat, a fee of $35 will apply both ways, plus any applicable gate check fees (this fee is waived if you possess a United co-branded credit card or have United elite status).
