Not horribly on topic, but perhaps there is a united.com person listening:

www.united.com's NS servers are -
  dns01.uls-prod.com.
  dns02.uls-prod.com.

whois and "dig +trace" show that www.united.com's servers are now:
      dc1lbs1.uls-prod.com
      dc2lbs1.uls-prod.com

maybe the dns changes were recently made and are still "in-flight"... (ducks)

i don't think so, the united.com domain was those two earlier today, with
www.united.com NS from dns01/02.uls-prod.com ... though I've seen this
situation change some throughout the day as well with the dcXlbs1 boxes in
the mix as well. Asking direcly from dns01/02 gets you records for SOME
things but not others and servfail 'often' for www.united.com.

Someone else pointed out that this is not a 'new' situation and has been
the case for about 3-4 weeks so far... their POC's on the domains:

united.com
ual.com
uls-prod.com

are all invalid/dead/not-answering... perhaps someone will be watching
nanog, perhaps they will continue to be busted :( Oh well.

maybe it was still on-the-fly after all.  whois united.com now shows
dcXlbs1 as the name servers, and a flush of the local nameserver here
now has www.united.com resolving properly.

So, some sort of register.com snafu?
