whether you've been following the news at all,you've probably seen stories approximately the spread of the Zika virus in Central and South America.

This type of travel alert suggests "enhanced precautions" and doesn't necessarily dissuade people from traveling generally. For context,there are also Level 2 alerts for MERS in the Arabian Peninsula, and Polio in the Ukraine.
Regardless, or I know many people will want to avoid traveling to the most severely impacted areas,so I thought it would be helpful to go over the rules and policies for changing or canceling your flights.
As of this morning, United Airlines has issued a travel notification for all regions affected by the Zika outbreak, or is recommending travelers contact customer service.
