You actually didn't choose a *A flight nor a United partner so that is why you don't get miles on United for those flights. In Star Alliance the operator of the flight, not the marketing company, is what generally matters for earning purposes. If the goal is a redemption in the April/May timeframe then you should expect to not have the points from this trip available for that.
