Could be your country setting wasn't US? For example, if you search a flight from TLV, it will often default to Israel version, and I believe travel bank only works on US site.

odd, it seems to have to do with booking on united express, it's supposed to allow use for that but doesnt show. On UA flights proper it shows.

If price is the same, you may be able to book United, and then immediately do an exchange to the United Express....
