Is this new: flights.united.com

New [to me] site on united.com: https://flights.united.com/en-us/
Maybe solely made for appearance in search engines?

Changing URL can yield some interesting "deals":
https://flights.united.com/en-us/flights-to-switzerland
(substitute "switzerland" to desired destination yields various results with multiple origin options.)
Not sure [yet] how to force J instead of Y though....

And not exactly sure of its usefulness, as it's likely to be less usable/helpful than google.com/flights, but interesting nevertheless.


Added:
Just as an example: easily found DFW-ZRH as DFW-YYZ-ZRH with 7+ hours at YYZ and in Basic Economy.....but for $336 r/t!
Horrible...but CHEAP!
I simply can't recall united.com offering/allowing this easy kind of "deal search" before..
