Why anyone would buy F ticket from UA? I was burned a couple of times when after misconnect I was accommodated in Y because UA upgraded all elites and F was full. Never again!
I decided that if UA was not willing to reserve a few seats for paid F misconnects (all available seats are usually given to upgrades ours before departure), I am not paying for F period.
You will not find much support on this board because everyone is happy to get upgraded ahead of time, but its a real problem at UA. Unless they keep at least 4 F seats on EACH domestic flights until boarding time, they will piss off misconnected paid F pax and last minute F pax who want to change or buy ticket last minute and loose future bookings from them. But UA does not care. Upgrades are clearly more important.
