From Aeroplan.com:

All scheduled flights operated by UNITED, United Express, and United Shuttle flights on qualifying paid fares‡

‡ For UNITED code-share flights operated by another Star Alliance airline, refer to the Aeroplan Miles section of the carrier operating the flight.
The problem with the quote from Aeroplan.com is that is says all flights on qualifying paid fares, yet it doesn't specify which paid fares are not qualifying. It's a bit confusing.
