Stop crediting flights to your United account. Just go for status with Star Alliance partners like Air Canada.

Agree, Delta miles are 💩. But not sure it’s better to fly United and never sit in extra legroom Y, J or F because your status is on Air Canada or to be stuck racking up Skypesos (while flying with better service/elite perks)

Another reason not to fly United

I had been shifting to Delta because it is typically a better hard and soft product despite their devaluations and I can get into the lounge sitting in the back because of AMEX - Polaris excepted (and even then D1 is better but hasn’t been rolled out as extensively). Was wavering a bit because I typically fly to and from destinations that could support any of the big 3…guess this makes that decision easier considering AA is trash in every other way and will inevitably follow suit.
