just figured flying out of ord that ua was the way to go
If you fly any elite heavy routes and don't have at least gold or plat you are going to lose out on those upgrades because they are upgraded whether they want it or not. Whereas on UA the elites have to pick and choose which flights they want to upgrade so you might have a better chance getting upgraded. Just a thought. I would definitely do AA over DL if you don't like UA out of ORD. Tried to get a friend out of there on award miles once on DL and there were no direct flights to LAX had to connect.
