Your tickets will be fine (apart from Covid-related flight schedule changes and cancellations). UA won't be disappearing any time soon. It may file for a re-organizational (Ch. 11) bankruptcy but will keep operating for the foreseeable future. For a major airline is it a long road from filing Ch. 11 to actually shutting down operations.
