True, except I was responding to adam.smith who was referencing a desire for Star Alliance one-stop travel to Europe and what he perceived to be his limited options. I was pointing out that ORD and DEN (and SFO) are also viable star alliance options for getting to Europe with one stop.

(and just for the record, one isn't limited to UA for the overseas portion from those US gateways.)
