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.")

Had tix for DXB-IAD-LGA which just got re-booked this morning to DXB-FRA-ORD-LGA. The extra miles are nice, but the 6 hours extra of travel time not so much. Not sure what triggered this as there still seems to be avail on my original DXB-IAD-LGA routing. A few questions:
Anyone have any idea what triggered this?
Do I have any recourse to try to force WF/UA to restore the old itin?
Am I going to run into the same problem as others with WF needing to make the change because it's on WF stock and UA not allowing WF to make changes without a note in the PNR?

Just finished our Wideroe trip
My wife and I just finished our Wideroe trip to Mumbai.
We had a blast in Mumbai. It was so much more fun than Beijing!
Thanks to the OP and congrats to everyone who participated in this one!
Next month, Milan! :-)

I just noticed that my name is misspelled on my ticket. Does anyone have recommendations as to whether to try to fix it with Wideroe, the airline before my trip, at the airport, or just roll with it and deal with it when/if it becomes a problem.
Thanks
Thanks

just an FYI if you didn't already know...MXP UA contract agents are pretty bad. also the MXP *A lounge isn't anything to write home about, good for a snack but the waiting areas are terrible. and if you're trying to get in as a *G i guess you're supposed to get a special sticker on your BP from above said contract agents. thought i created an international incident with the lounge dragon.
also the 764 IFE on UA 18/19 was really good, no different than using a standard tablet screen (unlike the dated ones on AA/BA/etc).
I posted in the UA forum upsell offers thread. I got offered ~900ish each way on both outbound and inbound this week. What was a little ridic was that loads on the inbound today were quite low in BF/coach and they were still selling for the same price as my almost overbooked outbound flight with a huge waitlist for upgrades.
just go with it if it's an obvious mistake. my GF had a stupid middle name error thanks to me (1 letter missing), the check in agent initially freaked out (due to it being a 701 ticket + couldn't officially validate passport with ticket). so I started saying I booked it off this travel website and it took me to this company like orbitz, blah blah blah and they must have misspelled it. but after check in agent did their sorcery, no one really noticed.
i would mainly suggest getting to the airport early.

Currently at LGA for my LGA-YUL-FRA-MXP leg. My first LGA-YUL flight was cxlled due to bad weather in YUL. I was auto rebooked onto the one 2 hours later which is fine because it cuts down my ridiculous layover. Also at check in at the kiosk I was offered an upgrade for $1199

Agreed! I was surprised at how responsive the touchscreens were on the 764s I flew recently. It's such a huge improvement over the ones I've seen typically on 772s, and you don't have to contend with someone behind you violently trying to get a touch to register on their screen.
