Double booking distorts inventory numbers and could discourage a different passenger from booking as lower cost inventory is consumed by the backup booking.
The only question is will UA detect your backup booking?
That's good to know, thank you.
Re: detect, I'm not going to chance it. The whole point of a second booking is to reduce risk for this trip. It sounds like booking a backup itinerary would increase risk instead. TY for the assistance.
