I'm happy to be enlightened.

UA and AA (which is what the OP posted about) programs are fundamentally different, in the sense that UA offers no PQD at all unless it is ticketed on UA (and perhaps some partners like NH, LH). AA however offers (vcarying) PQD on all alliance partners, regardless of which document is issued.
The OP presumably wanted to initiate a thread where FT members can suggest the max PQD bang for the buck.
PS. Those who are enslaved to UA will no doubt be unable to appreciate this.
