Do I still get my US miles? US/UA/DL situation
I was on a UA flight and had entered my US number. I volunteered to get of the UA flight (for $400!) and was put on a later DL flight from a different airport. Is there any way to still get my US miles for the UA flight that I was supposed to be on? If I volunteered to get off a US flight, would I still have gotten my US miles, or does this situation only apply when an IDB occurs?

Thanks

There is no way to get the US miles since you were rebooked on an airline that's not a partner of US. You can however still get UA miles if you are a member of their program or even DL miles.

If you were booked on a US flight and then US rebooked you on DL, you would have then been able to still get US miles.

You can get miles on UA but not US since it was booked through UA

Was it originally booked as a US Codeshare? You might be able to request original routing credit through DM...

Doesnt matter since the operating carrier of the original flight is not US.

Nope. It is a UA ticket that I added my US number to.

Thanks all for the responses. I figured I would be out of luck, but if there was going to be a way, one of us would know it!
