Are you hoping to earn to earrn to EK ffp or UA ffp?

In Star alliance ff earnings are based on the operating airline when an eligible operating airline.
The fare booking class does not always match 1:1 for marketing airline (flight number) to operating airline.
FFP's that are revenue based is another complication
So for a UA marketed flight - ANA operated flight you will earn as the ANA chart to UA ffp.
