AS THEY WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO FILL THEIR FLIGHT FULL...so no more oversold flights.
The reason the flights are all full is airlines have gotten real good about right sizing the planes they fly on routes and adjusting the times and frequencies of those flights, all to keep the planes full. If the masses defect from UA they would right size the planes again and adjust routes and frequencies to keep the planes full.
