If you used UA miles for an SAS ticket & your SAS flight is cancelled, UA will rebook you on another *A carrier with award space available. If no award space is avail UA might open space for you on their own flights or offer you a refund

I realize now that my question wasn't totally clear... I'm booked on SK metal using UA miles.

When you say "offer me a refund" in the literal sense where I can decline that and force them to transport me in my ticketed class of service, or was that a nice way of saying that they will tell me where to stick it and I'm on my own?
