I fly UA because:
1. AA ticked me off one too many times, so I switched to CO.
2. UA bought CO.
3. I now fly intra-Latin America often out of SJO. Prices are very high down here. I can use my miles to avoid that pain on Copa (preferred) or Avianca.
4. Lots of time and money invested in becoming 1K, and I generally like the perks.
5. Despite the threads of complaint to the contrary, the people at UA (with a few notable exceptions) treat me with respect, professionalism and genuine concern.
6. I have never wanted to go anywhere they don't fly.
