Does anyone know if one can transit without going through customs (and without using bribe!) at DLA... getting their visa + yellow fever jab is quite expensive and not sure if it's safe to do a side trip there...
This is clearly not going to be possible. You are flying more than double the direct distance and 50% more than DLA-ZRH-MLE, which is your best *A option. If you are not looking for BD status miles try using Qatar via DOH, which earns mileage.
