Ours was a strange one for our United flights to Egypt. We decided to cancel (although our flights were still showing 'go' on our online reservation) after ABD canceled. We expected to get a United flight credit. When my dad called, they gave him a refund. This was around 4/28. He has not gotten the refund yet but weirdly, my premium seats on United were refunded that day.
I had contacted Lufthansa (codeshare flight) to get my premium seats refunded from them (with little hope of that happening) heard nothing and a week later disputed the charges on my Amex. On the day I disputed with Amex, Lufthansa sent me an email telling me they would refund me. Coincidence? I think not...They have refunded 4 charges of $17 and one for $60. Still waiting on another $60 and two $100 charges (the big ones) but it sounds like I will get them (nice surprise!).
I did not speak to United and my dad was not clear on exactly what the deal was (just happy they offered refund) but it sounded like our flights HAD been canceled but that was only revealed when we called. Crazy and NOT COOL, but I was happy to get the refund (counting on the fact that it all eventually arrives back on the credit card).
United has great fares to Orlando for our spring break (currently rescheduled cruise) but I am NOT booking. It's Delta or JetBlue (direct flight) for me here on out.
