Ticket Code

My air travel ticket has the following code:

LON UA X/SFO UA LAS UA X/CHI UA LON

Can anyone tell me what the X/ suffix means please?
Many thanks,

Jim

Mike,

Thanks for the extremely quick response!

'Connection' makes sense, although the way I booked it was was LON-SFO and SFO-LAS, as two separate direct flights on different
days. I didn't book LON-LAS, connecting in SFO so not sure why it's showing that way, but hopefully shouldn't make any real
difference.

On the return leg the connecting flights at ORD are 85 mins apart - is that likely to be enough time?
Thanks again,

Jim

Interesting that they used the city codes for both London and Chicago and not
the airport codes (probably LHR and ORD).

This is because it is the fare construction. The fare calculation is
most time based on city codes. For most fares it would make no
difference to fly to La Guardia or JFK (at least for cosnolidator fares
from Europe to the US)
