That's up to 2 MONTHS before the miles show up. In this computer age I wonder why United takes so long. Is it that they don't want the miles being used for a return trip or is it really because of system constraints?
Why do you believe it is UAL that is the source of the delay?
A search for NZ will show that Air New Zealand flights are slower to post than many other *A flights.
