Crazy as it may seem, we are not all looking for the cash back. In my mind (different from others, I'll admit), once I spend the cash and purchase the item, that money is gone. I don't think... oh, what else can I, or should I do with it. It's gone and spent. So I look at the ETC or credits as almost Free spending ( Yes I know, it's my money, Yada,Yada), but once originally spent.... to me it's gone. So I love having the ability to choose a new trip and not spend NEW money!
My (hopefully unfounded) worry is that UA might not be around when I'm ready to spend the ETC. I'll take my cash back now.
