Has AI been completely blocking award tickets with UA MP miles? I see AI award tickets on DEL - CCU using Air Canada Aeroplan and hence curious.
Thanks,
AFAIK AI hasn't been blocking award space from UA. They have no reason to.

I think it's a UA IT issue. UA for some time could only see AI J/F inventory and used to misprice AI F as J on the India - NA routes. For the last many months all award space on UA MP has completely vanished.
