From the ual.com FAQ
<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2">What documentation is required for ticketed passengers to pass through security checkpoints?
It is recommended that you carry a government issued form of identification with you. Customers traveling on international flights must have a valid passport. The FAA has issued several new security measures that address access through airport security screening checkpoints.

To enter the secured area beyond the security screening checkpoint, you must hold one of the following boarding documents indicating a flight departure for the current date:


A receipt for an electronic ticket;
An itinerary generated by an airline or travel agency confirming an electronic ticket;
A boarding pass; or
A paper ticket.
If you do not have a boarding pass, ticket, e-ticket receipt or printed confirmation, an airline-issued boarding document must be obtained at the ticket counter prior to clearing security. Passengers who do not have baggage to check and already have an approved boarding document, as outlined above, may proceed through the security checkpoint directly to the departure gate.

Thus far, ever security checkpoint has asked me for ID in the US. Less so in Asia.
