As indicated in the thread title, this deal is now dead.

Note that the displayed receipt will be incorrect ($5 higher than actual) owing to a programming error. The taxes/fees shown includes the original $5 WF booking fee. Do not worry about this; it does not change the amount you are actually billed.How many miles will I earn on United from my flight?

Here's the UA master page listing airline partners. If you click on a partner logo, you'll see a page containing a chart showing the yield for flights taken on partner metal. (It even says explicitly that it's the metal that counts: "The award miles accrued on codeshare flights are based on the operating carrier and their equivalent fare class.")

I can't get it to work, assuming you are referring to the Air Canada flights.
Wideroe sends me a confirmation number via e-mail after purchase. When I try to look up info on both Air Canada and Wideroe's site, I am told the confirmation number is not recognized. I never got any sort of e-mail from Wideroe that my booking was cancelled, though.
I am going to keep trying.

The trick with the AC ones is going to be to figure out how to get the AC PNR without calling either AC or WF. If anyone has any ideas, I think a lot of us could use the tip.
In retrospect, probably would have been better to give AC # at booking time and then change it to UA later...

First heard of this deal yesterday evening and thought I might have missed out. Gave it a shot and tried booking JFK-MXP for early February. Booked at 04:52 EST early this morning. Pending charge on my CC for the booking. Got Receipt e-Ticket from Widerøe at 13:19 EST.
I don't want to get ahead of myself but I'm not exactly sure what this means for me. Flights are on AC and don't see any related information there...

I booked my LGA-*-MXP around 6 am EST, just got email alert my Cap1 Aspire card (real-time pending authorization) got charged $923 CAD ($873 USD for 2A1C1infant) at 1:20pm EST, no invoice email yet, so hoping that comes soon
I couldn't look up on AirCanada.com with my reservation PNR (even though it shows on CheckMyTrip.com)
I intentionally did NOT give them my AC # either as I wanted to use my A3 *A Gold later

Did anybody book a flight that goes out this week? I'm curious to know if UA will react oddly to any PAX that has a ticket.
If not, I've got a ticket booked for 12/3. So I may be one of the first canaries in the coal mine.
Will keep you appraised.

Seems unremarkable to me. For the ones I booked with UA codeshares on LH metal, the WF PNR doesn't match the UA or LH PNRs either, it just happens that it popped up on my Mileage Plus radar because I gave my UA MP # to WF at booking time.
The trick with the AC ones is going to be to figure out how to get the AC PNR without calling either AC or WF. If anyone has any ideas, I think a lot of us could use the tip.
