“Flat Tire” rule when coming from another airline

Hi all,

I have a tight connection at SFO (2hrs 10mins) from Qantas to United on Sunday at around 2pm. The Qantas flight has been a little unreliable the last few days and I’m nervous that CBP and TSA queues might cause me to miss the connection.

I understand that neither airline owes me anything here since it’s QF to UA, but does anyone know or have experience with United letting you go on a later flight if you arrive late on another carrier?
