Next month, I want to fly from Austin, TX to Mexico with my grandma, here is the problem:

We will travel together inbound to Mexico, however, I am returning alone. So my ticket will be round trip, and hers will be one-way.

How can I book both flights under a single transaction to ensure she gets the benefits from my United Mileage Club Card?

Buy round trips for both of you. She will get the benefits with you. You can then split the record and cancel her return "for use later" after paying the change fee, of course.
