While Chase may be one of UA's problems, I don't think Chase is the issue in this matter.

The document related preliminary injunction gave some ideas. In a nutshell, it seems that UA wanted to cut off Expedia's access to certain fares. My guess is UA wants to monetize the BE even more by cutting off access. So that travelers will have to buy BE fares directly through UA.
