I certainly understand and appreciate the business issue behind actual "United" miles flown - but what if "United" does not fly to those destination cities except through Star Alliance partners?
Only miles flown on UA count towards the million miles status.
They did a one time exception with the merger and allowed pre-merger *A flow miles and bonus EQM to count.
