However, the Delta search engine seems to be worthless. Could anyone let me know if there is availability on those routes on those dates and at what rate? Even if she could only book one of the flights with her available mileage balance it'd cut down on the out of pocket expenses. Thanks!

If the miles you want to use are with Delta, you must book the flight with Delta no matter what SkyTeam partner metal you wind up on. Your only choice is delta.com or calling the 800 res #.

The Delta.com engine is not " worthless" , there's even a multi-page thread here about award success with that engine.
