Not possible. You can use partners but not partners of partners. However, I have flown to Kodiak before using DL miles and am doing it again in July. There are usually 2 flights a day with AS-operated equipment. And if you find availability, you can fly to ANC one day, "stopover", then fly later to ADQ. On the return we have ADQ-ANC-SEA-MSP with no layover >4 hours so it is all done on one award ticket.

Wish I could use miles to book the charter floatplane we booked in Kodiak to get us to a Forest Service cabin in the Kodiak NWR.
