I mean, I guess that’s true. But it’s so rare that UA’s best price is offered 11 months in advance that I rarely even bother looking. I’m comfortable checking my tickets a couple of times after I buy them (usually between 3-6 weeks out). I’d go nuts checking a full year of fares on a regular basis. 🤣
