San Francisco – Chicago (and vice versa). $188 (Basic Economy) / $278 (Regular Economy). Roundtrip, including all Taxes – The Flight Deal

Exciting fare deals for trips to/from Chicago!

Using Matrix Airfare Search by ITA Software, you can find prices starting at $278 for Regular Economy. When searching with United, you may see a fare of $188 for Basic Economy and $278 for Regular Economy.

The $278 fare includes advance seat selection and standard carry-on luggage.

While United offers a $188 fare for Basic Economy, please note that this option does not permit advance seat selections, and your seat will be randomly assigned at check-in. Additionally, a normal-sized carry-on that does not fit under the seat incurs a fee of $35 each way plus any applicable gate check fees (this fee is waived if you have a United co-branded credit card or United elite status).
