So the question becomes, when you accepted UA's offer to put you on a BA flight, at whatever time, did that cancel out UA's obligation to get you to your destination at a reasonable time? In other words, did accepting UA's offer to put you on BA modify the terms of the contract?

And could you have refused UA's offer to put you onto BA (not that there'd be any reason to do so) and how would that have affected things?
