		<description>I&#039;m not going to pretend to know the answer, but my best guess is your miles will be preserved. Neither company would be so brazen... even United... as to just throw your miles away because they&#039;d be losing a whole lot of customers that way. They&#039;d definitely lose me.</description>

I&#039;m pretty deep in the United Airlines Mileage Plus program, but if United/Continental goes through, what happens to those of us that are in the program?  Please share if you know...</description>
