Partner or UA ticket stock?
I fly mainly Lufthansa, and for that I got the answer this particular one is with UA

If crediting to another program with distance-based earning, it's more of a gamble: they may treat it as O/A/R (whichever one shows after purchasing), or they may treat it as your original fare class. Best to check with the forum for whichever other programme to see if anyone reports relevant experiences.
Ok, thanks yes, crediting to UA on a UA flight
