Do I need the *G card when I check in in order to get the 3x70 suitcases on UA?  Or if its on my reservation its enough?
If things work properly, it will be on the reservation.

LH once asked me for it, and I believe OS doesn't really have the ability to "see" it

Yeah, but the question was about UA. The others don't even give 3x70.

I got star alliance gold from Turkish air, and I'm flying Swiss JFK-GVA-TLV (2nd leg is operated by Elal)
What benefits do I get (particularly baggage wise)?

And do I get the extra bag even if the 2nd leg is operated by Elal?

AFAIK as long as it's checked all the way through, yes. The return may be an issue, though.

AC, UA, and US all give to everyone on PNR.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.
