Jacquie,
Not sure what information you might need but here is a link to read about the FARE LOCK product.
You will be required to purchase your reservation at the end of the booking process unless you select the FareLock option. FareLock allows you to hold your reservation and fare for 72 hours or seven days, for a nonrefundable fee, and is available on select flights. If offered, you can purchase FareLock after you have selected your flights. See this Web page for more information.

Go to United.com and click Fare Lock when making your reservations and for a fee your reservation will be held for 7 days or 72 hours, whichever you prefer. The former will cost you more but will save your reservation longer without penalty. If you wish to purchase that option and find out the additional price it will be shown to you before agreeing. Good luck!

Preserve your fare and your peace of mind.
FareLockSM lets you hold your reserved fare and complete the purchase of your itinerary at a later time. Enjoy peace of mind that the price of your itinerary won’t go up and that the flight won’t sell out while you take your time with your purchase. Available only on united.com, FareLock allows you to reserve an itinerary and then complete your purchase later.
Itineraries can be held with FareLock for your choice of either 72 hours or seven days. The price of your itinerary is guaranteed during the hold period, until you decide to complete your purchase.
Using FareLock is easy.
During the booking process on united.com, look for the FareLock logo next to fares when you choose flights. After selecting flights, you can buy FareLock, if available, in the Purchase Options section on the Review Trip Itinerary page.
To purchase an itinerary that’s being held with FareLock, go to Manage Reservations before the hold expires. You may also choose the auto-purchase option, which will automatically complete your purchase at the end of the FareLock hold period. If you decide to cancel your saved itinerary, you may do so through Manage Reservations at any time before the FareLock hold expires.
An email reminder will be sent 24 hours before your FareLock hold ends.
Reservations, web, customer service, I am your wonder woman! I understand that some united policies are not fair. Give me the opportunity to explain or further assist until you are satisfied. I provide honest and real answers. If you ask me a question, I research, and answer to the best of my ability and what will help YOU understand how to work with United and its policies and processes.
