My karma level is zero since I started flying US domestic But I think you mix the facts a little bit !

UA didnt price the ticket, US did ! Further they HAVE to accomodate me. If in LAX or DEN who cares, just that in DEN thay would have to pay me accomodation and meals until the next day when LH has a connection.

The only thing UA did was messing the connections up with an incredible stupid staffing system. How can you rely a pilots duty on an on-time earlier flight

That agent I was talking to wouldnt help me anyways because she was either way not authorized to rebook on LH or too inexperienced to do so. It is the same procedure if booking on a UA codeshare or UA original flight. Doesnt matter anyways, if someone tells me bullsh*t, I tell him it is bullsh*t ! If you want someone to tell you lies better dont talk to me. I dont believe in sweet-talking.
