When I asked if they could route me on UA, they flatly refused, even though I know AA still has an agreement with UA, but not DL. If they couldn't put me back in I, I would have likely demanded a refund and bought a walk-up fare on UA or DL as they still had tickets to sell.
Update: I got 7,500 miles and a form letter for my troubles. I can only imagine what one gets when they are on an Economy fare.
