(There's nothing UA-specific about this, FWIW.)

Ticket would be domestic.

I'd be flying via O'Hare on UA, so I was specifically interested in their policy.

I've flown infant in lap on UA before, and they issue a paper boarding pass for the infant in lap for the entire trip, so I wasn't sure what happens if they issue one for segment 2 and it goes unused...
