"the one you purchase the ticket from"? You mean United, who issued the 016 ticket? I always thought the compensation would come from the operating carrier, not the issuing carrier nor the marketing carrier.

United proactively sent the "Customer Appreciation" email, apologizing for the major delay, and offering 7500 miles or $150 ETC.
