Not quite.. I'm based near 3 US/DL only airports (ILM/OAJ/EWN) and often buy US tickets and credit miles toward UA. However, I regularly drive to RDU for UA metal and try to get UA when I'm not starting at home. I'm sure others are in this same predicament.
However, with US/AA leaving *A sometime soon (before this change takes effect), it's a moot point.. AA is already calling unless UA can come to eastern NC.
