Suggestions for a newbie please??!!

Hi all,
I am new to this board and am not sure if I'm posting this question in the right place. If not, let me know and I'll post wherever I'm told to!!
Anyway, I'm not an FF member with anyone right now, no membership numbers of any sort with hotels, car companies, etc.
Here's my deal, I'm taking my husband and 2 children from Atlanta to Auckland New Zealand in December to visit my mom's family.
I'm flying Air New Zealand(buying the tickets next week). We'll be flying a couple of segments while in NZ as well.
I guess my best bet is to sign up with United for the points, right?? Who does UA have agreements with hotel-wise for using points later since it's unlikely I'll fly UA anytime in the future. Also, should I pay with any specific credit card for points?? Does each family member need to get their own FF number?(I'm assuming so, but just checking)
Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
Annette
