The segments between LAS/ORD and return are on a UA codeshare. However, when I go to the UA website to duplicate, I cannot get it to appear. I narrow the departure times to match the offering on the LX website, make sure to uncheck "United Airlines Flights Only" and increase "Number of Flights to Display" to 50. No joy. Some LH flights show up, but no LX. Again, this is to purchase, not award travel. Assume I should just buy from LX? Thanks.
Could be that UA doesn't codeshare with LX on the ZRH-VIE leg, so that's why it doesn't show up on UA. You should be fine booking on LX and entering your MP number.
