That's good for UA flyers, but most of us don't pick runs simply based on the maximum miles without regard to the airline alliance. I don't really see much point in doing a run if you don't have status in the program (or are trying to get status in the program). The return is just to small to really justify it. Fortunately, both AA and DL are also participating in this fare.
