1. go to "change flights"
2. select only the passengers you want to split off
3. try to change to new flights (in my case, the site bombed as usual, gave me an error message...but the new PNR was still created).
I ended up calling Premier Desk. After having me on hold for about an hour, they "recommended" that I cancel the entire itinerary and rebook the flights (they were still not able to split the reservation for some reason). Since my trip is still pretty far out and some availability will surely pop up, I opted for this option since UA offered to waive the redeposit fee.
