I haven't specifically looked for next summer, but historically, UA space has been pretty easy to get to ANC. That said, I always routed through SEA, and the SEA-ANC flight no longer exists. Maybe space from other hubs is harder to come by.
US isn't a partner of AS's yet, but perhaps as the US-AA merger proceeds, that may change, and AS and US might begin working together. Or AS might not ever deal with US-as-US and just wait for the merger to fully complete and deal with the new, merged entity.
