I arrive 1 minute later, but more importantly, I was downgraded from an A319 to a CRJ 700 for a hop IAD-BOS.

Any chance that I can get a different routing and avoid the CRJ? Or will CSRs be unsympathetic?

EDIT: Although when I do a dummy booking on the same route, it seems that the flight operates on a 738. UA IT glitch?

Yes to both - I've done it on both revenue tickets as well as awards.
