2. I saw the "trick" used on UA and US, but does it work on all other airlines?

These may be dumb questions, but please note the subject line.

Thanks for any help
1. William Shatner is flexing his bargainus maximus to get you the best possible deal. He fights hard and removes the fuel surcharge for the people brave enough to click through to an itinerary.

2. I believe that most of the time it worked when there is a codeshared flight involved. The latest occurrence was with BMI and sadly it could be the last because it got a lot more exposure than previous postings of the trick.
