Economy Plus as Continental elite on United award
I booked an award flight on United which required that I associate my Mileage Plus # to the itinerary at booking. Is it possible to switch that to Continental to allow for my Star status (just silver) to be recognized so that I can choose Economy Plus seats, board early, etc.? I definitely don't see anywhere to do that online at least.
It sure would be nice if there were "alliance accounts".
Thanks for any info!
