The space just really isn't there - and I don't have the entire day to chase it.
Will likely just go Saturday and hope UA comes through with some appropriate comp.
I thought you were in the NY area. Anyway, if you can't find an AA flight out of DCA, then something would be wrong.
Bottom line, having pax waiting for days to get a flight, like what UA is doing, unacceptable.
