Any good MR deals for ORD/MDW?
I'm a newbie on MR and I would want a nice start. Is there a nice deal out there for weekends? (September)

P.S. I'm on AC's aeroplan, UA's Mileage Plus, and Thai's Royal Orchid Plus. so any star alliance airlines could be okay right? I really want to lock into just one specific program. I don't know if Thai's program is better, or AC's program is better. Correct me if I'm wrong in both.

Thanks for the help =]

ORD-DTW is pretty decent all year round:

For AC/UA/TG FFP comparisons, visit the star alliance forum and search a bit.

Thanks for everyone's help. I do appreciate that.
When I tried to check Expedia for the available routings I couldn't find that section, why?

I like UA's program if you're in the US simply because you'll be flying on UA the most (presumably).

Hmmm I think I'll get the Mileage Plus then
When I tried to look up the routings at Expedia I couldn't find that Routing thing. I called Expedia and they said only United knows those stuff. Then I called United and they say they don't have it. What's going on?

UA routing rules are generally not freely available; see here:
