The itinerary showed up on her dl.com log in right away, and I couldn't be happier, as it's booked in V and L class, which according to DL.com earns 100%.

I booked ATL ----> LAS a little over seven weeks ago. I received 0(ZERO) MQM's or MQS. The fare was last minute, I saved over $450.00 USD on Cheaptickets. I understood that Delta did NOT give "normal" mileage credit as Cheaptickets was a consolidator(I thought we got something...like 25% but I digress). I tried to get DL to "add" MQM's after the fact and I got the response that consolidators(even Vayama, Orbitz were considered "consolidators") did not yield MQM's . I did NOT make the upgrade list in Atlanta as a DM, but asked politely in LAS but did not make the upgrade, however, I made the list(why, I do not know). I was happy because I saved a little over $450.00 and I
needed to get out there. YMMV! I am trying next weekend on Priceline and offering $375.00 and stopping at $400.00.
