They officially only honored those booked for travel by a certain date (forget exactly, but it was around 5 or 6 days from the day the deal went viral), and of course including folks who departed before UA even noticed.

I've seen a few posts claiming to have been successful in keeping their trips even though they didn't fall into that category, for whatever reason. Mine were certainly canceled by UA right away!

VFTW has a post on the "real reason for the UA deval"...
