My husband & I got caught by the strike in the middle of a vacation, but both of our United flights were still running, on time, and only about half full. If your flight's cancelled, United will definitely honor your super-savers on another flight, if you can figure out a new schedule. p.s. the United wing of O'Hare is fascinating during the strike. Very,very quiet... lots of warning signs about not taking pictures of United employees, lots of security guards.
