An example of a DL minimum stay requirement is as follows (for a TE10Q3SJ fare basis):
MINIMUM STAY: RETURN FIRST SUNDAY AFTER DEPARTURE FROM ORIGIN
So DL's "miniumum stay" rules don't actually require that you stay anywhere, just that you don't fly back until a certain amount of time has elapsed after your departure.
Right. So how are you violating the fare rules by booking tickets between trips?
