In fact, on those occasions when the meal choice was not available -- and I was an SE -- I made a point of noting how UA took orders and FAs agreed it made sense, but they'd never been instructed to do so.
BTW, this could not be done properly if status of Aeroplan award travelers does not appear on the manifest as Es and SEs would appear as non-status travelers.
They have been instructed to do so when they did new J service training about 3 years ago. I know that it's not always done, but it is on my flights. Trust me, it's AC - definitely MY airline of choice for the last 29 years and 348 days (i.e. my entire life!!)
