Hey fellow YEG traveller, saw the announcement today YEG can get some INTL flights back finally, hope we get them back ASAP!! I remember the days of YEG-EWR direct, man those were great eh....
Anyways I would just book on AC stock (ie AC website)
I have been flying out of YEG booking AC tickets and have been racking up the PQP since we have been basically kinda locked domestically since this pandemic started.
You get a mileage based return when booking direct with AC, you would get way less PQP if you booked with UA direct, the difference magnifies if you book P fares on AC. I also have never had an issue with miles crediting OK to UA MP. Good luck
