United & Continental had a similar merger some time ago. Took a long time to merge the ffp's.
As you rightly note, it took a while before UA and CO merged their FF programs. But they had a transitional period during which it was possible to transfer miles between the two programs. It's not yet clear if AA and US will have a similar transitional period at some point.
