As a UA 1P you will earn 100% RDM bonus on LH that you will not earn on either LX or TK.
For the days I need to travel (this is for work so no flexibility) LH is $600 more. My preference would be LH or combination of LH,AC,US, or UA/CO for the RDM bonus. I was holding out for them, but their prices never dropped and I am not expecting them to with the summer travel. I could be wrong but would prefer to just book than wait and see. Still waiting for UA/CO to fly to SA. E+ all the way would be nice.

Thanks for the thought though.
