The other option would be to take advantage of the 50% transfer bonus AMEX currently has for MR to BA Avios (ends 5/31/12) Then use the OneWorld options. Though he would have to pay fuel surcharge on BA's redemption.
You're kidding, right? Both AA and DL get the very same TN award inventory, plus DL also gets AF inventory which is not available using DL miles...

I agree that DL miles can be difficult to use, but putting a blanket statement on it without considering the circumstances is silly.
