I'm trying to figure that out. If the domestic flights don't count for anything then I guess I'll have to consider UA considering what you had stated in your post.
The only reliable way to do this is to use the UA website. Here is the page for Air Canada earnings

Since it's my thread, am I allowed to take it off topic??
If you're in the UA program, try your best to avoid domestic AC flights within Canada. If there's an option for your flight to transit via an Asian hub, do that instead and you'll be better off from a status / PQM perspective.

Nope. PQM (ie. Miles counting towards status, in regular person language) is not dependent on the status you have. It is dependent on the miles you fly, the fare code, and which carrier operates the flight.

I just found this out the hard way. Although I was able to price it out on the website, I was unable to book it either through the site or through an agent. Apparently the inventory data on ITA matrix wasn't correct. Meanwhile prices to XIY have increased. So now I'm going to settle for the PEK transit option in the hope that still works, and see which Chinese cities are still available at a decent price through AC or an OTA. I'll report back with the result.
Cool tool though... that was my first interaction with javascript ever.
