SK conf #2 has 4 flights, LHR-ARN (SK) and then ARN-LHR (SK) and LHR-IAD-ROC (both UA).

So my UA itinerary is complete, Both SK itineraries are not complete, but consistent with the UA ticket I bought, and I have the LHR-ARN flight on both.

Is this what you're looking for?

Thank for your help! I just want to understand what is going on....
This is anomalous in my experience, and I flew SK on an interline TATL ticket in May. In that case, I only used them one-way on the interline, and only got one booking from SK, that included only the connecting legs from AC (it was an AC-SK interline flight on LH ticket stock!).

Having two SK files would be less problematic if there was no overlap on the LHR-ARN reservations. My advice is to call SK and make sure that you are not double booked on that LHR-ARN leg, otherwise the downstream segments could cancel out.

It sounds like ARN is your destination, and if so, you'd have time to reinstate the bookings with UA if they were to record you as a no-show on one of those LHR-ARN segments and then auto-cancel the rest.
