6408 base miles and 3204 category bonus miles
For those without status this means:
9610 MQM (confirmed)
4 MQS (confirmed)
9612 RDM (confirmed, base, you get more with status)
$1922 MQD (confirmed)
Source: https://www.delta.com/content/www/en...eromexico.html
Tips from those who have run this:
Get all your BPs at MCO before you depart (if not staying)
Use MEX immigration first point return to USA, second point to SDQ
Ask for two of the smaller forms on jet to SDQ (need 2nd at exit)
No need to pay $10 fee if you have BP to show not staying
MEX return w/1.5 connection is tight. You may miss connect
New AM 737 seats are Zodiac w/ IFE power. Old are total crud
Regional MEX-SDQ has Gogo but only for videos. Very limited choices. No power.
Food was either hot or cold sandwich on mainline. Cold on regional.
How many points did you get crediting to:
Have not yet got points to confirm above earnings on Delta. Will update.
Canceling:
Contact the OTA you booked with to cancel. AeroMexico unwilling to refund via phone, website, and in person.

At least I don't see a reason to do it earlier here, you can pick your seats without status.
Or am I missing something here?

Departing SDQ. As Renes Points mentioned above , you don't have to pay the $10 fee just fill your forms In advance and you should be in good shape. I was also able to change the rest of my ticket to a later date after my flight from MCO. Went to the customer service desk in MEX and the rep changes it without any issues. cheers!

hey guys - My reservation no longer lists the fare rules. Instead there is a message that says "There were problems retrieving the fare rules associated to your itinerary. Please Call us."
Did anyone happen to screenshot the fare rules??? I'd like to read them over again, wondering if the fare is transferable...

And the plot thickens......
I just got an email from Expedia saying that AM cancelled the return flight on one of my reservations. They already moved me from a Sunday return to a Monday return. Now they cancelled the Monday return flight from MEX to MCO.
I'm a noob at this. What do I do? This particular itinerary isn't until next summer, but I imagine it's not the only of the 5 I have booked that will have this problem. And I'm not looking to be stranded in MEX obviously. I really appreciate the sage advice of any of the more experienced out there.

Island! thanks for the answer, i think there's a bug with my reservation... that continue to payment never appears, not even after selecting the 4 seats. And the total on the right is empty, and I guess it should display "0.00"

Changes of dates.
Doe anyone know if the dates or names can be changed on the tickets?
I booked a 4 night trip but would like to extend it a few days. Also I have another trip I might not be able to use and would love to be able to change the name on it so a family member could use the trip instead if possible.

As for the name change, that's another no no.
