A couple of days later the flight shows up on delta.com with zero miles and "non eligible" marker. I call Delta and they tell me that "F" class is not eligible for milage. Looking up the miles earning chart for Alitalia flights, indeed "F" is not listed. Cheap .......s, now I am 311 miles short on renewing my status for 2016.
