I have always dealt with the United Club agents when I have missed a connecting flight. I have always been polite and friendly, and have suggested preferred alternate flights. I have always gotten the flights that I have wanted, often on different airlines, sometimes with minimum connection time rules waived (when I knew I could make the connection), and nearly always with a smile from the agent.

Hope I haven't jinxed it with this post.
