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

How do I manage my itinerary/check my booking/select seats?

Go to http://www.wideroe.no/en/my-trips or https://wftc2-wideroe.e-travel.com/p...E_REQUEST=true
Enter PNR/email address/last name

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.")

MileagePlus (UA) earning charts for

Lufthansa (LH) (K fares earn 0%!)
SWISS (LX) (K fares earn 0%!)
Air Canada (AC)

Will I do better if I credit to another *A carrier instead?

Maybe.

Miles&More (LH, LX,...) earning charts for

United Airlines (UA) (K, L, T fares earn 50%, 25% for flights in 2014)
Lufthansa (LH) (K, L, T fares earn 50% for TATL flights in 2013, 25% for TATL flights in 2014)
Swiss (LX) (K, L, T fares earn 50% for TATL flights in 2013, 25% for TATL flights in 2014)
Air Canada (AC) (K, L, T fares earn 50% for TATL flights in 2013, 25% for TATL flights in 2014)

Here's the master list of partner earning charts for Aegean (A3) and here's the list for Turkish Airlines (TK).

Are there other FlyerTalk members flying when I am?

Quite possibly! There is a meetup thread on the CommunityBuzz forum. Post if you would like to participate.
