United and American Codeshare?
 
I just booked a flight through United that has me flying on American metal for the return leg from Dayton to SFO via Dallas. The ticket starts with 016 so it's a United ticket and I assume I'll get all my PQD/Ms, but I can't figure out why they booked me through another airline.

FYI I built the itinerary on google.com/flights and then purchased through UA.com

you will get neither PQM nor PQD when flying AA metal even on 016 tickets.

Maybe they have nothing flying that day/time?

No miles for AA, therefore no PQDs for the AA segments.

Google flights is a referral service, it can build multi-carrier combinations. It booked you exactly what you clicked on.

Same can also be done by calling UA directly. There are some other routes that you can build mixed (non-partner) carrier itin directly on UA site.

An existing thread about it
