I believe this is incorrect. For the past few years, I have been earning UA miles for TACA flights. However, I have not used this in the past year or so, so something may have changed.

Edit to add: Definitely incorrect...here is information about earning and redeeming UA miles on/for TACA flights: http://www.united.com/page/article/0,6722,51762,00.html
