Not showing for me either.
UA's been messing with the website recently (see thread re "A or B" query); suspect this is related.

wonder if it's either deliberate, or a feature they completely forgot about and neglected to include in the new website?

Isn't it great how United's IT department thoroughly tests stuff before dumping it on customers? They must have the same leadership team as inflight catering.
