Just a quick note to the few of you who don't accumulate miles on UA and are a non-USA resident ... if something goes wrong (ie flight cancelled) and you get the instructions to go to the 'customer appreciation' website and you do not even have a UA account, you will get some awful choices. If you then write in to customer care, you will get a form response of 'oh we look at things carefully to balance the customers' expectations with the operation of our business, we can offer you 5000 non-UA miles' (note the UA miles on offer were 22,500-30,000 depending on status). If you again write and say, no, I want a reasonable offer for a cancelled flight/day lost, you will finally get a $350 credit valid worldwide on UA. Takes some patience and persistence, but better than the non-offer to start ($200 for US only travel, only if you have a US based credit card; or 20% off worldwide travel, again only with US based card).

NPR just ran a story on Weekend All Things Considered on someone who did this MR.

$550? Good deal! But I was also on the mouse run and got $1K credit, so I got a better deal... 
The story was about a mileage runner, and it implied that the 36k miles were PQMs. Because I was rebooked in Y/B for the overseas legs, I got bonus PQMs, so it was an even better deal.

Delurking to give this tip after doing a turnaround this past weekend: If doing a turn in BAH, make sure you go to the transfers desk and get the initial security interview questions answered there (and the passport sticker to prove it). If you simply show up at the departures gate without the sticker and presenting BPs from IAD, you'll get a more in-depth interview. The security people recognized me from my quarterly business trips so it wasn't as bad as it might've been. They do acknowledge that MRs are a thing but did question my sanity for doing 20,000 miles in 46 hours.

Crew A - IAD-KWI
Crew B - KWI-BAH-KWI
Crew C - KWI-IAD
So overall, the crew is more perky on KWI-BAH-KWI because it's essentially 2 1-hour FLTs. No meal service, no alcohol service. No alcohol because KWI is a dry country.

Got pretty lucky with the rebooking due to cancellation of the Thursday IAD-KWI-BAH flights. Originally put me on LAX-IAD-DXB-BAH in V. Requested GPU but didn't clear (#8 of a lot on the waitlist). Due to a seating snafu that somehow swapped me mid-trip E+ aisle to E- middle and no other E+ options, SD was willing to move me to LAX-IAD-FRA-DOH-BAH. IAD-FRA cleared and had a spare paper SWU that was gonna expire 31/1 so used that on FRA-DOH-BAH. :-D
Now if only I can get upgraded on the way back :P
