I went to belatedly sign up Mrs FullTimeFlyer for e-rewards; she has a small and slowly growing Delta account (and another small NWA account) but with the combo coming it's worth doing.

Although e-rewards still lists Delta and NWA as partners, I can't find any mention of e-rewards on either site. It is SkyMiles (or WorldPerks and then SkyMiles) that I want her to earn, so I'm wondering what the heck is going on. Are they still really partners? Is this a situation where I can/should try to make her a hotel account and then spend the e-rewards points on SkyMiles? If I remember correctly you get fewer redemption opportunities that way, but it beats nothing if I can't sign her up through Delta or NWA, I guess.

Anyone know more? Thanks.
