The problem is probably that those carriers are partners with UA but arent *A members, thusly you can use only the Miles from the program that those carriers belong to.

4 seats wont be easy at all. I usually drive it I LOVE the drive but would like to fly down at least once just for the views

btw US has a flight to EYW from CLT
