Was it UA or UAX (Mesa airlines)
I only ask cause this time of year we don't get mainline to IAH and although I am sure you could, I would be surprised if you did.
That said each airlines (even within UAX) manages their own crews and schedules - so even though United's name is on the side of the plane, Mesa or whomever the operator of the flight is DBA as UAX is responsible for scheduling.
