I saw those, too, but unfortunately can't find any AC-less connections to YOW. I guess I could settle with a short-haul scamcharge.

Sadly includes AC.
You left this WAY too late.
And don't be an idiot and get try to get AC status for 2014. GO United.
If you had UA miles this above ticket would cost 10% the scam charges AC is gonna throw at you.
Thanks, guys.
I do know this is peak season and I left it very late. Unfortunately, my job prevents me from planning in advance. That's why I acknowledged (and accept) that there may simply be no availability left.
As for 2014, I still haven't decided which FFP to go with. AE sucks for redemption, but AC has been very good to me in terms of eUpgrade success. The UA forum seems to suggest even 1Ks have a very tough time upgrading since the merger...
