Does the trip on United or *Alliance quality for earning EQMs if paid for by AMEX points?
Depends on whether it was a YourTicket Award, or whether it was a pure award ticket purchased by transferring points to the mileage program of the respective airline. If it was the former, yes, you earn EQMs and RDMs. If it was the latter, no, you don't.
