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.")

Conspiracy Theory!
Article claims Wideroe not only knew about the lack of fuel surcharge but fanned the flames on it.

Im sorry but I got late to the party!...
I cannot seem to replicate any of the previous displayed fares on any route..

Just to confirm im doing it right, I went to https://www.wideroe.no/en and started putting random dates flying out of EWR to OSL and different parts in europe with no luck whatsoever..
all the fares in Jan or Feb come out to over 600+bucks round trip.
Am I doing it wrong? or its just gone

Seems pretty irresponsible.
And I can't see how Amadeus wouldn't drop them now.

AC Upgradable with miles?
Is it possible to upgrade filights purchase on this deal (L,K) fare using AC miles? If so is it even a good idea? How much would it cost for JFK-MXP?

Ticketed after 50 hours.
No fraud alert on my card, not sure if i should call my bank just in case. Its not abnormal for me to have international charges on my debit card so i think it might be OK. Hate to have it cancelled in the middle of the night
Put in my time off request. No hotels needed since its only 7 or 8 hours on the ground. Luckily in DXB the PP lounges have showers, unfortunately that will cut into my on the ground time but hey cant stink up the plane now

I just thought of something .... I don't think it matters....but.I'm not entirely sure.... I booked tickets for my husband, daughter and me, and only used our first names in the booking. I did not use middle names. Does that matter? Middle names are in our passports.

I guess, I understand mileage runs as anyone else but the nomad in me loves using this as a chance to see other parts of the world for cheap.
